Measure your favourite garments, don't measure your body.
We have created many thousands of custom made pieces for our clients over the past few decades. Our experience has told us that the best way for us to get this right the first time is to take your garment measurements.
The measurements below refer to your jacket. Measure your favourite jacket and compare to find your best size. Alternatively, order custom made and send us your favourite jacket's measurements, we will make you a personalised fitted piece.
Please see here for a measurement guide.
All measurements are in inches.

INSPIRATION:
The Milky Opal is one of the two white opals found in Coober Pedy, South Australia. It is unique in the sense the colouration is opaque with the colours only found on the surface. This Milky Opal weave is our Midseason weight which makes it ideal for cooler conditions. Like the Milky Opal itself, this exciting and unusual weave presents a boundless array of colour.
This is one of the full weighted Handwoven Raw Silk Jackets. It is thicker to touch and will give extra warmth for winter or cooler weather, but still is incredibly light on your back and will perform as all the Handwoven Raw Silk Jackets do in summer.
DRESS IT UP AND DOWN: Any combination of primary colours: reds, yellows and blues can be combined to make a formal but fun outfit with the Milky Opal. Teals and greens will make it more relaxed and a blank canvas of black beneath will make a spectacle of the jacket.
CURIOUS FACT: White opals can display all the colours of the spectrum, and they will rarely cost as much as their darker cousins for the simple reason – they are much more common.
