Kat Whitledge Basics & Bespoke is a brand new, made in Vermont, clothing design/production company that promotes Slow Fashion. The Slow Fashion movement is a relatively new idea, although in fact, it is as old as clothing. The movement is about a return to real consideration of what we wear and how it’s being made. We produce clothing that is made-to-measure and is timeless in design. We want to produce clothing that you feel good wearing because it’s flattering, but also that you feel good about wearing, because it is locally produced and will be something that you can use for many years. What can you expect when you come into our atelier? You will have a personal, private consultation about what type of clothing you like, what feels and looks good to you. You will have a file created with your measurements and special likes and dislikes and be asked to try on some muslin models of clothing styles that appeal to you. The muslin model will be “tailored” to fit you and your new article of clothing will be produced using this muslin. You can choose from fabrics in the atelier or we can find a special fabric for you. Is bespoke clothing expensive? Depending on what fabrics you use, your tailor-made, or bespoke, piece of clothing can be purchased for a price that is comparable to a well-made “off the rack” garment.
