The Tulip Skirt -One of a Kind

I have four ways I can help you find, make or rescue clothing:

One-of-a-Kind shop— unique handmade pieces that are already made and ready for a new home.

Made-to-measure — clothing from my catalogue made specifically for you, using your measurements and with opportunities to personalise the design.

Design your own — a chance for us to meet and design a bespoke piece made for you, it in volves consultation, quoting and is much more involved as I build a relationship and learn about you.

Alterations and repairs — giving existing garments a better fit, a new lease on life or, where possible, a second chance.

So whether you want something new, something very you, or something you already own made wearable again, I've got you.

Because I think clothing should have a little more personality.

Handmade clothing gives me the chance to pay attention to the details that can get lost in mass production — the fabric, the fit, the pockets, the little quirks and, most importantly, the person who will actually wear it.

I also love the idea of buying fewer things and loving them more.

I don't want to make clothes that simply fill a gap in your wardrobe.

I want to make clothes you'll reach for again and again.

My focus is on individual style, natural fibres, thoughtful construction, comfortable fit and clothing with a bit of personality.

And because I'm a sole trader, when you deal with The Linen Duck, you're dealing directly with the person making the clothes. No mysterious corporate clothing department hiding behind a curtain!

Not at all.

You don't need to arrive with a fully formed fashion manifesto.

You can bring me a picture, a favourite garment, a fabric you adore, an idea you've been carrying around for years, or simply say:

"I want something comfortable that makes me feel fabulous."

We can work from there. And I can help you decide if it if One of a Kind, Made to Measure or Design your own the the way forward for you

It means exactly what it sounds like: there's only one.

My one-of-a-kind ready-to-wear garments are individually made pieces, so when you find one that fits and makes your heart do a little happy dance, it really is worth snapping it up.

There isn't a warehouse full of identical versions waiting behind it.

Yes. Available pieces can be purchased through my online shop, measurements are listed

I also take The Linen Duck out into the real world from time to time, so you may spot me at markets and events around the region.

Don't give up on it just yet!

Depending on the garment and what needs changing, I may be able to alter it for you.

Send me a message before purchasing if you're unsure. I'll have a look and let you know what is realistically possible.

Possibly. I tend to buy enough fabric for one unique item, but please reach out as there may be a way to source more, or have some left in my stash. It will then become a made-to-measure piece rather than a true one-of-a-kind ready-to-wear garment, along with the lead-time to required create your individual piece

Some designs can be recreated and personalised with different fabrics or design details. The individual product listing will tell you what's possible.
