The Atelier
From a conversation to a creation.
How a bespoke ACME piece is made, step by unhurried step.
How a bespoke piece is made, step by unhurried step.

The process
Seven unhurried steps.
The Consultation
We meet at the studio and talk about the occasion, your style, colours you love and how you want to feel. Bring references, photographs, even a family saree.

The Design
Shylaja Deepak sketches a design made for you, refining it with you until it is right.
Fabric & Detail
We select fabrics, colours and embellishment together, considering drape, comfort and how it photographs.

Measurements
Taken carefully in person, because couture begins with precision.
The Fittings
Fittings to perfect the fit and fall. Nothing is rushed.

Finishing by Hand
Final embellishment, finishing and a last quality check in the atelier.
The Handover
Your piece is ready, pressed and presented, with time to spare before your day.
