Besides my line, I do customized pieces for particular clients.
I learnt the ancient techniques of couture  from my French grandmother and her sisters who worked for Germain and Chanel in Paris in the 1920's .
From the delicate hand stitching finishing to the handmade embroidering,
adding to that my tailoring background .
Couture is an art form to create unique wearable pieces made by measure to the exact size and shape of the client and  is a fascinating technique that requires a combination of cutting, sewing, ironing and shaping of  the materials as the process unfolds creating almost sculptured garments.

As I have been alway fascinated by art and fashion history,costumes are something close to my heart and each one of them is a brand new challenge that push me forward to try new techniques and the use of the most unusual materials to recreate a character.

 The most rewarding part of this one of a kind pieces, is to be able to embody the client's own vision together with the spirit of the piece itself so, when they wear them, they feel it as a second skin; their alter egos, their dreams,their treasures of the moment.
Therefore I share with each one of my clients the whole process and in the meantime, I am honored to meet amazing human beings who trust me to be the creative hand to channel their wishes. 
Here is a gallery of some of those works.
