As a mother and daughter
team with a passion for design throughout the ages, Mamie’s
distinctive style is a result of both our shared and contrasting tastes.
Our style is based on the individuality of each model and our team
of specialised seamstresses never repeat an identical piece!
Our vintage fabrics and accessories generally range from the 1920s
to the 1960s and will have been used in one or many other contexts
before, therefore snagging and uneven beading is common. It is this
link to a past history which bestows every Mamie piece with a magical
allure.
The Mamie woman participates in the creative process as she chooses
one unique piece over another defining her |
|
personal sophistication and reflecting
how she feels rather than how she ought to look. We hope that if you
tire of the way we have put together your unique Mamie top you will
take it apart, once again, and breathe new life into its individual
parts as you use them to continue their journey through history.
In a world of mass produced items we create pieces which are exclusive
but not inaccessible, slowing down the process of reinvention to focus
on the intrinsic beauty of the details. Most of all we hope that you
find a Mamie design to suit your mood and be confident in the courage
it takes to set yourself apart from the crowd.
