Sizing and measurements.

Thirty-six numbers, taken once.

A size chart maps a body onto a range. A drafted pattern starts at your shoulder and works outward. We do the second, which is why there is nothing to look up here.

What is taken

Thirty-six measurements at the first appointment, by Athina or Niccolò rather than an assistant. Shoulder, waist, reach, rise, and the several dozen smaller ones that decide whether a sleeve moves.

Where they are kept

In a paper book in the cutting room, under lock. They are never entered into this website and never leave the building.

If your body changes

Expected, and built in. Seam allowances are cut wide, and the final fitting is scheduled as close to the date as pressing allows.

Ready-to-order pieces

Even these are cut after the order. If you cannot come in, write and we will tell you which measurements we need and how to take them properly.
