The language
The atelier's vocabulary
- La toile
- The garment's first draft, cut in plain cotton: where a couture piece learns its shape.
- La première
- The head of the atelier: the hands that translate a sketch into a construction.
- Le bâti
- Temporary basting stitches, placed by hand and removed once the piece holds its line.
- La mousseline
- The lightest of silks, and the most demanding: it forgives nothing.
- The archive
- Pieces of significance, rested and conserved: a wardrobe's memory.
- The rotation
- The seasonal movement of the wardrobe: what advances, what rests.

A word
On discretion
No client is ever named. No wardrobe is ever photographed for publication. References are shared verbally, and only with consent. This discretion is not a limitation of our references: it is the first of them.
Every enquiry is handled personally, and in confidence.
