Chapter 00Atelier Nº 01

A private atelier dressing a global clientele — cut by hand in two hemispheres, stitched to a passport-accurate fit.

Eastern heritage,
Western precision.

Bespoke tailoring between London and Dubai. Suits cut to a London weight; sherwanis and kurtas finished with Eastern embroidery traditions.

The Palette

A restrained system: midnight charcoal as the spine, soft ivory as the canvas, champagne gold as the thread. Emerald and burgundy enter only in heritage collections, and only in measured doses.

Primary · Ink#121212

Midnight Charcoal

Body copy, packaging, logotype, the spine of the brand.

Canvas · Ground#F5F1E8

Soft Ivory

Primary surface. Warmer than white; forgiving on print and screen.

Accent · Thread#C6A66A

Champagne Gold

Hairlines, foil, price labels, logotype. Never a fill — always a detail.

Neutral · Quiet#B7AA98

Stone Taupe

Secondary text, dividers, garment-tag paper.

Heritage · Majlis#0F4C3A

Deep Emerald

Reserved for Eastern occasion-wear. A single garment. A single tag.

Heritage · Formal#5A1F2B

Heritage Accents

Emerald and burgundy enter only where the garment calls for them — a majlis jacket, a wedding achkan, an evening tuxedo. One heritage colour per garment. Never both.

Heritage · Majlis#0F4C3A

The Emerald Achkan.

A deep jewel-tone reserved for daytime occasion-wear; always lined in ivory silk, always finished with champagne gold buttons.

Heritage · Formal Evening#5A1F2B

The Burgundy Smoking.

A velvet dinner jacket for the evening — shawl lapels, satin facings, hand-stitched piping. Paired only with a black bow.
