Hey friend, I took a look at your website and at the garments you posted in this thread and everything looks really great! I would love if maybe you had some spare time to kind of list out your process and maybe take photos of the garments while they are still a work in progress and then a photo of the finished pieces! I'll be keeping an eye on your work and ill likely pick something up soon.

To Zamb--thank you very much. I quite appreciate it and remember with gratitude your willingness to let me visit your atelier in Brooklyn. I want to say it was back in the spring of 2013, but I could be wrong about that. It's been a strange road to travel down and I'm often frustrated in the process, particularly being approached to commission cheaper versions of the things that people seek, be it clothes, or paintings. In time, I hope to move away from this and offer a more uniquely tailored vision of my own. I hope that all is well with you! Cheers!
Dash--I just finally emailed you back a few days ago. Life has been kicking my butt, lately! I answered your question in that email.
Let me know if you get anywhere with Elena's staff member!
Indes--Perhaps I could do that, some day. My process is much the same as most designers--from fabric selection to pattern-making and sewing, although I do everything by myself and have no assistants. I do not buy large yardage runs and try to keep my overhead as low as possible. I'm still very much growing slowly and trying to keep it an organic growth. It's daunting, but hopefully in time will be something to look back upon.

I've done some recent overhaul on items and added a few new coats and jackets.
I had the pleasure of meeting a forum member this past weekend and selling them an item, while they were up in Maine, on family vacation, which was a treat.
I'm currently doing a small custom order for an overseas client and looking at a potential English retail outlet, but am always open to more business, if anyone would like a new jacket, or shirt, for fall. As time progresses, things will be done on a made-to-order regimen, for now, so ideas are always welcome.
Have a great week!

Jesse may be the most down to earth guy I've met, at least from the industry.. I had a lovely experience with him and made some sort of relationship, which is odd because usually customers and clients don't mix lmfao. Just wanted to sing my praises for this guy, he has been really helpful lately.
