About the Designer

From my reality into yours

My name is Joanna: Fine artist turned graphic designer turned filmmaker turned seamstress/apparel designer. And now I've finally found my niche. My inspiration comes from fairy tales, science fiction, musicians throughout history, historical fashion, nature, but foremost from my dreams. I started this as a challenge to myself to see if I could teach myself how to sew. Now I literally cannot stop.

customs/commissions

Custom orders are currently closed so I can focus on brainstorming new ideas. I will make an announcement as soon as I am opening up commissions again. Due to vintage fabrics often coming in small and limited quantities not all pieces can be exactly replicated. Many pieces in this shop are 1 of 1.

shop policies

no returns/exchanges

Sorry, no returns or exchanges right now! All items are one of a kind. If it doesn't fit just hit me up about having it modified to fit you better.

no refunds

Sorry no refunds right now either. If you're not happy with your purchase there are some great apps for resale! I'm a one person business and the refund/return process just isn't in the cards right now. As my business grows my shop policies will become more easy-going. If it's an issue with fit let me know and we can work together to make it just right.

No cancellations

YOLO. No regrets.

package lost in the mail?

After I've provided tracking it's out of my hands. I will do my best to help you keep track of the package in transit. But things do happen. If you'd like to purchase additional insurance just let me know. For pricier items I often just insure the entire thing anyway just to be extra cautious.

shipping times

Currently shipping can take 1-2 weeks to dispatch due to current complications in my life with my health. I do apologize, but I assure you every piece is worth the wait.

alterations

If you'd like an existing piece modified please let me know before purchase. Hemming is $10 but other major alterations will cost more (just depends on what you need done).

CURRENT NEWS

temporary hiatus

Currently I am on a hiatus to collect my thoughts, get some health related things in order, and reevaluate my aspirations.

Is it over forever?

I sincerely hope not. I lost most of the use of my left hand about a year and a half ago and I am hoping this is the year I can finally get surgery on it, and find a doctor who treats EDS patients to help me cope with the symptoms. All of these things will get me back to my dream sooner.

Can i still buy your products?

Absolutely. And I encourage it! I haven't stopped loving my customers!
