Custom dressmaking and sewing education based in timeless craftsmanship and sustainable design.

About me

Andi Bowen

I’m a dressmaker, pattern maker and sewing teacher with over a decade of experience working across fashion, bridal, and custom design. Bespoke Stitchery is the evolution of my practice - a blend of my love for beautifully crafted garments and my commitment to sharing the skills that keep traditional dressmaking alive. I believe in thoughtful, sustainable design, and in garments that are made to last, to fit, and to mean something.

Bespoke Stitchery

As Bespoke Stitchery continues to evolve, I’m pleased to share a collection of new offerings designed to bring together custom design, refined craftsmanship, and sewing education. From thoughtfully developed online courses to expanded bespoke services and free creative resources, each addition is part of a deeper commitment to slow fashion, sustainability, and the art of making with intention.

One-of-a-kind pieces tailored to your vision, fit, and lifestyle. Whether for everyday wear or a special occasion, each garment is thoughtfully designed and meticulously made.

02. Pattern making & sampling

From personalised blocks to final mock up, I offer custom pattern development for clients who value precision and comfort for their personal wardrobe or brand.

03. Consultation & Design Direction

If you're in the early stages of design development, I can offer a guiding hand in pattern development, fabric sourcing and sampling.

The Atelier

A curated collection of sewing and pattern making courses designed to build confidence, refine technique, and honour the craft of garment making. Learn at your own pace, with guidance rooted in tradition and a vision for the future.

Your Tailored Patterns

Blending traditional pattern making techniques with a modern, methodical approach, this course guides you through the process of drafting, refining, and customising foundational blocks you can return to again and again. Whether you're sewing for yourself or others, this is where timeless fit begins.

Advanced Corsetry

Designed for experienced sewists, this course delves into the delicate balance of form and function, guiding you through advanced construction methods and precise shaping of your custom fitted corset. From historical silhouettes to modern interpretations, each lesson is based in tradition and delivered with quiet precision - empowering you to create corsets that are as beautiful as they are enduring.
