Take a look at where I get my colour and fabric ideas from.
A calming palette of delicate winter shades.
Rich neutrals with a dazzling splash of blue.
Earthy, warm, natural autumn tones.
The deep, dramatic colours of a sunset behind brooding clouds.
Britain has the most wonderful history of cloth manufacturing, such skilled weavers and the choice is exceptional. Different weights of cloth, different patterns within the weave, beautiful colours and high quality that is consistent and a signature of their craft. Also it keeps the miles travelled to a minimum, which is an added bonus.
Using one colour lining is an AMF Signature. I have chosen a gorgeous red that goes with everything. It also allows for better sustainability as I can use up every small piece and not have metres or half metres accumulating. However if a client really wants a different colour then I can accommodate their wishes.
Every item is designed, pattern cut, toiled and tailored by me. There is no substitute for having the whole process in my hands and I love every part of it.
At the moment I sell on a personal basis because I offer a bespoke service which means I need to be able to assess my clients needs, take their measurements and make and fit the toile and garment personally. In the future I hope to be able to offer a small online range where the need for such specific fit is reduced but as I make everything at the moment this isn’t viable for me.
