Ateliér Casa Gioia

A replica of a dress I made this last spring for Sofia 😊
She had an old H&M dress she loved, but unfortunately the fabric started showing signs on wear and tear, so I took it apart, chose a suitable fabric and made a copy of it🤩
Do you have any clothes you love but have seen better days? Send me a message and we can have a look together for the best solution 😊

Monday hits different when you're working on such a lovely set of vintage frocks 😍

Vintage clothes are not always in perfect conditions but that does not mean they're not worth saving, sometimes it's just a matter of fixing a couple of stitches like in this case 😊

Do you like to shop in vintage and second hand stores? What are your favourites around Prague?

There's nothing more satisfying than finding a new purpose to unused clothes 🥰

Lovely had a bunch of jeans that were uncomfortable to wear due to the lurex thread being too scratchy, so we decided to cut them up and make a backpack!

I love the result, not only did we save the jeans from the landfill (remember that the fashion industry is one of the most polluting on the planet 😱) but we also created something completely unique and original!

If you want to know more about how to upcycle your old garment book an appointment and we can together find the most suitable project 😊

Some of you may have noticed that I have new art hanging in my studio 😍
All the paintings and pictures have been made by resident artists of , they are all up for sale, so if you see anything you like do not hesitate to ask for more details 😊

Happy to announce I've updated my booking hours 🥳
Starting this week every Wednesday the studio will be open till 9pm.
Remember it's on appointment only, so you'll still need to check the availability before coming over 😁

Maybe not everyone knows, but you can make your clothes bigger 😁

Well made garments, especially suit trousers and evening gowns often have quite big seam allowances inside, this can be used to let it out, sometimes even of a couple of sizes up 😊

Halloween marks the start of the festive season and with it a whole series of events and celebrations worthy of your sparkliest outfit 🤩

Whether you want to jazz up garments in your wardrobe, have a new outfit from scratch or even add some decor to your home, now it's the time to start planning 😊

Remember that made to measure items take time so allow at least a month for the production 🙏

A repair done on jacket 😊

The pocket bag was ripped at the seam, so I replaced the damaged fabric and flipped the pocket panel upsidedown to have matching fabrics on both sides 😊 the result is a pretty invisible mend and the jacket is like new!
