About

At Petite Delicates, collections of 5-10 pieces are launched monthly. The collections are themed in aesthetically pleasing color palettes.

Handmade garments are each made from scratch by me. I sketch out designs, create sewing patterns for them, size grade, create mockups, and finally sew the final piece. My designs are inspired by lingerie, the coquette aesthetic, and the timeless beauty of vintage garments. People typically stray away from this style is because it is typically sheer, made from lace. My garments use lace, but are lined with high quality thick knit fabrics so people can wear this style in casual settings.

Why?

It all started with a petite cat.

Petite Delicates started when my dear kitty fell ill. She was petite herself, standing 1'2. When she was diagnosed with end stage kidney disease, I wanted to spend as much time as possible with her and stayed home to take care of her. To provide for her, I started a business from home.

My kitty was very supportive and would watch me sew intently, despite being sick, and loved resting in my satin and silk clothes. She had her own wardrobe too, including a handmade pink satin birthday dress, cut from scrap vintage fabric. She has passed away now, but this brand continues, with love, in her memory.
