This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
I have specialized in creating Custom Made and Bespoke leather garments for men and women for over 25 years.
My passion is creating beautifully fitted and long lasting leather pieces that speaks to-and of, the individual who commissioned it.
Whether it is a one of a kind bridal gown in the most unusual of materials, an extravagant couture showpiece, a classically tailored leather jacket or suit, each custom commission begins with personal measurements and is designed with you in mind. Once the pattern is perfected, your piece is individually hand-made using the finest leathers and fabrics chosen specifically for your project.
I have created pieces for Stage and Screen as well as personal wardrobe pieces for more than a few celebrities over the years both directly and working with their stylists. And while I love to do this type of work, what I really love is creating pieces that will become part of a persons every day life.
Whether it is a fully Bespoke piece or one of my Made-to-Order Styles, Leather is a medium that I believe deserves the best craftsmanship that I can put into it - a good piece of leather will last for decades and just get better with time.
