After all, you’re creating a really personal signature outfit which will endure for years to come.
At Mad on Sewing, we work with you every stitch of the way to make your vision a reality.
From your very first one-to-one consultation to that breathtaking final fitting, we guide and advise – but also listen to your every request and instruction – to ensure we capture precisely just what you’re looking for.
You may wish to source your own personal choice of fabric but do browse our own extensive selection too which includes fine silks, intricate lace, woven wools and cottons as well as some manmade fibre prints.
