Dandy & Rebel Atelier

Bespoke tailoring and commissioned work.

I make made-to-measure garments for ceremony, performance, and everyday wear,

with a focus on gender-affirming fit and considered construction.

This is slow work, done properly ~ built for real lives.

Most commissions start from £250–£350.

I specialise in work for people who don’t feel at home in off-the-rack tailoring.

What I make

  • Queer wedding and event wear

  • Gender-affirming tailoring

  • Costume and statement commissions (select projects, by conversation)

    Garments are made with respect for gender expression, body autonomy, and comfort in movement.

How Commissions Work

I take on a small number of commissions at a time so I can give each piece proper attention.

If you reach out, I can’t always promise a slot, but it opens the door to a clear, honest conversation.

You can expect:

  • clear timelines

  • straightforward pricing

  • a calm, structured fitting process

  • respectful communication and boundaries

The Process

  1. Enquiry: what you want, when you need it, and any fit priorities

  2. Consultation: design direction, feasibility and timeline

  3. Quote + booking fee: your slot is secured

  4. Fittings: measured adjustments, no guesswork, no rushing

  5. Finish + collection: final checks and handover

Investment

Commissions are priced individually based on complexity, fit requirements, and timeframe.

Starting from:

  • Tailored pieces: from £250

  • Structured jackets: from £450

  • Occasion pieces: from £650

You’ll always receive a clear quote before any work begins.

I’ll always tell you early if something isn’t realistic for your budget.
