Your idea - ethically custom made
Custom-made fashion to express your individual style. Simply ask for your individual unique piece according to your ideas. You don’t have to be a fashion designer, it’s enough to bring in your ideas. Our tailors will do the rest. You work together on your project. During the production you will get questions about color, size, materials etc.. We manufacture everything as an individual unique piece. We deliver worldwide. There is no limit to the products we can manufacture. Think of everything that can produce high-quality craftsmanship.
Your tailor-made dress, shirt etc. will be custom made in Africa and delivered worldwide. The entire process is transparent. Fairtrade 2.0, we’d say. You will get all information and direct contact to your tailor in Ghana or Kenya.
