For the Life She Leads

The Atelier curates a wardrobe for the life Princess Najla leads — the field visit to an artisan in Riyadh, the heritage summit, the Royal Enclosure at Ascot where craft and occasion arrive together on the same afternoon.

There is a particular woman who understands that what is made by hand carries a history that no other process can replicate. She has spent her life in service of that belief — building bridges between the maker and the world, ensuring that craft is not preserved behind glass but worn, used, continuously needed. The Atelier dresses that woman. We share the conviction. Each piece cut here begins the same way Princess Najla's work does — with a single artisan, a specific material, and the patience to get it right.

Commissioned for Royal Ascot — the Emilia Dress and Duster Coat, designed and cut together as a single look for Her Highness.

Silk Virgin Wool Blend or Silk Faille | Lombardia, IT

Collarless Duster Coat, Square-Neck Dress

-

The Emilia is a commission of deliberate restraint — a square-neck dress in ivory silk faille, clean through the body, worn beneath a floor-grazing duster coat that opens with the same unhurried authority. No collar, no lapel, nothing to interrupt the line from shoulder to hem. The coat carries its own structure — strong at the shoulder, falling straight — while the dress beneath moves independently of it. Two pieces that read as one thing until they don't.

Commissioned for Royal Ascot. Cut entirely to Her Highness's specification and refined through private fitting.

The Emilia Dress - £4,500

The Duster Coat - £4,250

Made-to-measure commissions are inclusive of a custom pattern cut by Master Pattern Cutter Antonella in Venice, developed entirely to the client's unique measurements and refined through two private fittings.

Each piece commissioned with the Atelier is held on permanent record — the pattern, the measurements, the fabric, the fitting notes. A wardrobe built over time, each commission informed by the last. For Her Highness, the archive already begins.

Virgin Wool Crepe | Lombardia, IT

V-Neckline, Five-Panel Construction

-

The Sofia in ivory virgin wool crêpe — five panels cut by hand in Venice, the v-neckline drawing inward toward a silhouette that reveals the shoulders with complete composure. The fabric carries the weight of the occasion without stiffening against the body. Held on permanent record with the house.

Silk Cupro | Veneto, IT

High-Waist, Soft Pleats

-

The Antonella in dove silk cupro from Veneto — a high-waisted A-line with soft sweeping pleats that carry the fabric's natural drape with each step. Cupro moves with a quieter weight than silk, closer to the body without clinging to it. The house signet at the closure; discreet pockets set into the seam. Held on permanent record with the house.

Virgin Wool Crepe | Lombardia, IT

V-Neckline, Five-Panel Construction

-

The Sofia in black virgin wool crêpe — the same five-panel construction, the same hand-cut precision from Master Pattern Cutter Antonella in Venice, an entirely different register. Where the ivory reads as occasion, the black reads as authority. Held on permanent record with the house.

As ever, it is an honour to dress Her Highness — the Emilia Dress and Duster Coat cut by hand and finished in materials sourced from the finest mills in Italy. Conceived for Ascot, and made to last well beyond it.

It is a privilege to dress you and to build this wardrobe with the house. I am delighted to create these pieces in celebration of Royal Ascot.
