We will help you to customise something truly special that you will cherish for years to come. You can visit us for the day and browse the collection, or you can see us at one of our shows (see Homepage) but you can also order remotely by contacting us.
The price of your BlueBarn.Life garment will depend upon the fabrics you choose and the work involved to make it, but will be approximately the same as an equivalent ready-made garment (see our Collection).
Select your style from the Collections pages and Lookbook. The details of each garment design can be seen on the our styles page.
Order your toile(s) to try on. We have made up toiles of each style in every size, and you may want to order more than one to see what suits you best.
Return the toile to us, noting any changes (e.g. hem length, extra ease underarm etc.) required. The cost of the toile will be credited against the finished cost of the bespoke garment.
Choose your fabric from our store of dozens of delicious textiles - vintage and new, hand-dyed, handwoven, luxurious or rustic. Find out more about our wonderful, sustainable textiles here. We will send you a selection of samples by post.
Rummage through our button boxes to find treasures that complete your creative journey. Easy if you visit us, but we can send photos by email.
