Austen Dress
Description
Paving the way for future writers, Jane Austen wrote novels such as “Pride and Prejudice”, “Emma” and “Sense and Sensibility” at a time when female writers were not so high profile. She was no wall flower for her time and this dress is a reminder of the romantic and somewhat controversial characters Austen portrayed in her novels.
Austen's Sense and Sensibility: “It isn’t what we say or think that defines us, but what we do.”

Our tailoring process
Fine fabrication
We thoughtfully select fabrics to ensure that our pieces have enough stretch to allow you to transition through your day from sitting at the office to strutting in the city.
Detailed design
We sketch before heading to sample stage, considering every detail from pockets to plackets. All pieces are fully customisable for a $50 fee so please reach out to us if you would like any changes made prior to ordering.
Timeless pieces
We are all about fast paced careers, but not fast fashion. We design pieces that are transeasonal and timeless. We see our designs as a suit of armor. To feel your best, you need to look your best.
