Making a Zilpah Tart Dress

Did you know that every Zilpah Tart Dress is hand cut and handmade right here in my Canberra Studio?

I’ve recently had a few people ask me on social media if I sew all the dresses and orders myself, and many have been surprised by the answer. I am a one woman show and complete everything from designing, print designing, pattern making, cutting, sewing, styling, marketing, packaging and posting, and of course the back end of running a business.

I guess this isn’t a side I show as much through my posts so I thought I’d show you what’s involved in making a Zilpah Tart Dress. I like keeping my business the way it is, so long as I can manage to keep up with demand.

I think offering a beautiful product that is handmade provides something that is far more personal, having the human touch, and a story behind each dress.

I’ve made a quick video of me making a dress in my studio so you can get some insight into the steps involved.

Printed velvet! 😱 Let me tell you how amazing Printed velvet! 😱

Let me tell you how amazing this is. My plain coloured velvet jackets have been super popular. I reached out to my printer about printing onto velvet and he sourced a velvet fabric just for me. I was unsure how it would turn out… unsure if the print would be fuzzy. But it has arrived and it is incredible. The print is super clear. The velvet is soft with that gorgeous sheen. I can’t wait to make a sample 😃

What print would you like to see in velvet?
