nomi atelier...

is a custom design and tailoring project. (i refrain from using the word business because it sounds too serious). my current client is requesting a replica of a ralph lauren black label pant. these aren't the exact pants below, but have similar details.

the design requested features:
  • slack fit
  • belted waistband tabs at side seam
  • finished faced waistband
  • flat front and back (dartless, no pleats)
  • side seam pockets
  • single welt back pockets
  • lightweight summer fabric



ralph lauren purple label
madison rope stripe trouser
originally retailing at $795
now on sale for $479

we've already taken measurements, i've done the pattern drafting, now i'm working on a muslin for a fitting tomorrow. from there corrections or additional work can be made, then we shall shop for materials for the final product. all this happens in the course of 2 weeks! and if the client is as amazed as i hope, he'll be requesting 3 more of the same style and it will still be cheaper than the sale price of one pair of these purple label pants.
