Laura had several wraps she was considering using to make herself a bomber jacket.

She entrusted me with two different ones for the exterior and interior, and I sent her some fabric options scraps for the sleeves... Once everything was chosen and armed with her precise measurements, I embarked on making this jacket, which I really enjoyed creating and which I would have liked to keep for myself... ;)

i love it so much! instantly my fav jacket ever đŸ€Ł the fit is wonderful, finally a jacket with long enough arms!
thank you so so so so much again đŸ„°
[...] i‘ve been wearing the bomber jacket whenever the weather permits and i love it sososoSO much!

Stéphanie's heart-stopper

Stephanie fell in love with a bag I'd shown her in a discussion around an online LinkedIn challenge, and decided to get one made in her favorite colors for Christmas. After choosing the materials from my stock together, I quickly made it so she'd have it in time under the tree. This fun and exciting collaboration resulted in this daring and classy shoulder bag.

Common questions

How much fabric do I need to provide?

It depends entirely on the piece you choose, but here are some concrete reference points:

  • Pocket mirror (Ocebo'): a 6×6 cm piece is enough;
  • Coin purse, wallet: roughly 20×20 cm to 40×30 cm depending on the model;
  • Clutch, compact crossbody: approximately 40×40 cm to 60×60 cm;
  • Medium-sized bag: from 50×80 cm upwards, depending on the silhouette;
  • Slippers (size EU 38): 21×60 cm for the low version, 55×92 cm for the ankle version;
  • Bomber jacket (size EU 38): 1.1 m × width (65 cm min) without sleeves, 2.2 m with.

A question I often hear about newborns: is a onesie or a small square of baby clothing enough? Yes, more than enough for a small piece (Ocebo', coin purse); for a larger bag, it's completed with a compatible fabric, always with your approval. There's also the Signature finish from the Essentials range, which makes it possible to use several small pieces together.
And of course, several fabrics can be combined too (the same person's clothes from different periods, or several siblings' garments, for example).

The good news: I also work with small pieces. If your fabric is on the tight side, certain finishes allow me to cut in free or geometric shapes and waste almost nothing. We work it out together during the discovery call, before any decisions are made.

And if you're not sure exactly how much fabric you have? Just take a photo, bring it to our first chat, and we'll figure out what's possible.

"I can’t afford it"

Payment in 4 installments is possible.
For bespoke orders, I can also spread the creation stages over several months.

"It’s too expensive"

Each piece is unique: imagined and handcrafted in my studio in France.
The price reflects the technical skill, premium materials, and the uniqueness of an artwork designed to last and keep its aesthetic strength. A true favorite like this is cherished for years.
