A vintage set consisting of a blazer and trousers is an extraordinary rarity when searching for vintage gems. What should such a set stand out for? Quality, condition, shape, cut?
Of course! However, my primary criterion is the level of craftsmanship – tailoring and the possibility of making alterations, touching the construction: slimming, shortening, etc. The potential for creative and artistic intervention, which I carry out in my CREATIVE SEWING WORKSHOP.
Each carefully selected set allows you to momentarily transport yourself in time, imagining who might have worn it and on what occasions.
Today, a very good suit, made to measure, is quite expensive. It's not easily accessible to everyone.
Why not take advantage of carefully selected vintage collections, which are characterized by timelessness and durability?
I try to add that "something" of my own and create a new project in the spirit of Vintage.

I usually freshen up such a blazer or trousers in the dry cleaner, and repair them when needed: replacing the lining, buttons.
-
The cut and form of blazers are mostly "OVERSIZE."
