the ocelot custom experience
Ready to bring your dream outfit to life? I offer two exclusive services where we can collaborate to design a unique piece, just for you. Every detail is meticulously crafted by me, for a truly one-of-a-kind garment that you'll truly adore.
UNIQUE TO YOU
1. Adjustment to an Existing Design
Explore the endless possibilities of personalising any Ocelot design to match your unique vision.
You have the freedom to get creative. Whether it's tweaking the skirt length, neckline, sleeves, or swapping fabrics, we'll collaborate closely to customise the dress specifically for you.
Once we've nailed down your ideas, I'll provide you with a detailed breakdown of costs and any changes to the standard production timelines.
ONE-OF-A-KIND
2. Completely Custom
Create your dream dress from scratch with my Completely Custom service.
Opt for this option if you have a specific vision in mind or want to work with me to develop a one-of-a-kind piece that requires starting from a blank canvas.
I will collaborate with you to bring your ideas to life, from choosing fabrics and silhouettes to adding intricate details and embellishments.
Experience the ultimate luxury of having a dress made exclusively for you.
THE COMPLETELY CUSTOM PROCESS
Creating a completely custom piece is a fun, collaborative journey. The timeline varies based on complexity of the design, usually between 4 to 9 months.
We'll discuss the estimated timeline and costs during your consultations.
If you have a special event coming up sooner, don't worry – please do contact me as we may be able to explore options to speed up the process.
ABOUT YOU
CONSULTATION
I'll take the time to understand your unique style, the event, and your personal preferences. You'll share your inspirations, and, of course, your Pinterest board. Together, we'll capture the key insights for me to go away and craft your initial designs.
YOUR VISION
DESIGN
The design process begins with typically three sketches, and a detailed consultation where we delve into every aspect – from the cut and the fabrics, right through to the fastenings. Together, we'll refine until your vision is perfectly captured.
BLUEPRINT
MEASUREMENTS
With my measurement guide, we carefully collect each measurement to craft the pattern for your bespoke Made-to-Measure garment. Your unique measurements serve as the blueprint, ensuring a truly one-of-a-kind piece tailored just for you.
PERFECT FIT
TOILE
I'll create a mock-up of your garment, known as a "toile," using plain fabric. Your toile will be shipped to you for a personalised virtual fitting session. Together, we'll assess the fit and any alterations needed.

FINAL GARMENT
With the fit perfected, your final dress will be meticulously crafted in your chosen fabric. Every detail and embellishment, from buttons to lace, will be added with precision to bring your unique vision to life.
