About

Our specialties are sumptuous gowns, dresses and accessories for weddings, parties and special events. Each dress is designed and hand-made, one-at-a-time, in my Portland, Oregon studio by myself and with the help of skilled local artisans/seamstresses. We strive in every extent possible to run the studio and keep the garments we create focused on an environmentally sustainable path. You can choose from a ready to wear size dress or a totally custom fit dress made to flatter your individual and fabulous shape.

We offer a number of certified organic and other sustainable fabric choices along with more traditional natural fiber fabrics typically in silk, cotton, linen, wool, hemp, bamboo, soy and others.

I've been designing, creating and constructing custom dresses and accessories for well over 25 years. I also teach design, draping, pattern making and sewing construction at the college level as well as to DIY enthusiasts! Sewing is an art form that should not be lost.

Careful attention to detail, high quality, thoughtful construction, superb fit and individual style and embellishment are hallmarks of my work. You can view other examples here:

Terri makes all of her beautiful dresses by hand to fit the bride - and from truly sustainable fabrics for a price that's affordable (<$1000). She was quick to respond to my questions and very flexible about changes I wanted to make. I couldn't have asked for a better dress buying experience and to have something that speaks to my values made wearing the dress extra special.

Terri is fantastic to work with! She took the elements of the two dresses I liked and put them together beautifully in a dress we worked together to design. I love that she has sustainable, fair-trade fabrics available (the hemp/silk charmeuse blend is gorgeous!). The dress was just what I wanted, and looked perfect on our wedding day!
