By the maison's hand alone.
Song-brocade qipao, kesi tapestry, Suzhou embroidery and one-of-one evening pieces — made to your measure, on partner looms in Shengze, Suzhou.
One piece, for one life.
Beyond our ready collection, the maison receives a small number of private commissions each year. Each is drawn, woven, embroidered and fitted to a single wearer — by the same masters whose hands carried the looms for forty years.
From letter to garment.
No obligation at any step. The first conversation is always private and free of charge.
Conversation
A private letter, video call or a visit to the Suzhou atelier. You describe the occasion; we listen.
Sketch & Silks
One to two weeks of design. We send sketches, silk swatches and embroidery samples for your approval.
Fitting
In Suzhou by appointment. For Europe, the Americas and Japan, our team travels to you — usually twice.
Delivery
Sixty to ninety days for couture; up to nine months for kesi tapestry. Lacquer box, certificate, hand-signed letter.
What we commission.
Six lines of work. If yours falls outside, write to us anyway — most of the maison's finest pieces began with a question that did not fit a category.
Song-brocade Cloud Qipao
Hundred-Cloud motif, hand-knotted closures, fitted to the millimetre.
Kesi Mountain Cape
Mi Fu landscape rendered in kesi tapestry — twelve in the world.
Su Embroidery, made to motif
Double-faced three-figured stitch, on a carré or a framed scroll — your motif, your monogram.
New Mandarin Gown
For weddings, state evenings, milestones — entirely bespoke.
Gentleman's Long Robe
Stand-collar Song-brocade for the modern scholar. Standard sizes or bespoke.
Anything else, by quotation
A wedding veil, an embroidered scroll, a children's qipao for a hundred-day rite — write, we will reply.
Tell us what you imagine.
A senior couturier reads every enquiry personally. We reply within one working day, with no obligation.
