Commissioning Your Wardrobe

Standard Sizing
Your piece is tailored to the closest fit based on your measurements.
Couture Service (Made-to-Measure)
A custom pattern is created to your unique proportions and refined through approximately two fittings, before the final piece is crafted in your chosen fabric. Modifications to the silhouette may be explored to your specifications.
Your Pattern Archive
Your unique pattern is held by the Atelier, allowing you to return to the design over time — and commission it again in new fabrics or colourways with ease.
Our Couturier Heritage
Inspired by pieces left as family heirlooms to Stacey Gallello, the house unpicks the fond memories he wove into the seams of his
garments, and entwines them into the modern day. Dominic Gallello was couturier pattern cutter to Monsieur Christian Dior and Yves Saint Laurent. The Atelier is committed to preserving the integrity of traditional craft by practicing his techniques today.
The Atelier
The Atelier is based between Venice and Milan, specialising in couture tailoring and safeguarding the craft of traditional atelier artisans. Every element is executed by hand — from artisanal tailoring to embroidery, beadwork and corsetry, with traditional boning techniques, never machine-led construction.
