My go-to for custom fashion in Kampala. Grateful for the support navigating the chaotic downtown fabric markets with such ease. Also love being able to find hidden gems of fabric, especially for performance wear!

Went on a fabric tour to have some custom clothing made that was not all African print that I could wear casually to work in Australia. I went with Veronica and Anne Marie who were super helpful navigating the markets which were like a maze! I have them screenshots of styles I liked and they helped find and negotiate the prices which was a big help.
Then had the consultations to go through what I wanted and to take all measures, we had two fittings at the office once the clothing was made and then adjusted to ensure it was all what I wanted, couldn't be happier with the end product, price and the smooth service.
A great experience and hearing how the money helps the organisation was a wonderful bonus.
