At Joshua Hansler, we specialise in creating fully customised designs that reflect your unique style and personality. We understand that no two clients are alike, which is why every project is an entirely bespoke experience.

Our collaborative process begins with you. Do you have a colour palette in mind, or perhaps a mood board filled with inspiring styles? Any starting point is welcome! Using your initial ideas as a springboard, we will curate a selection of fabric samples and embellishments that align perfectly with your desired specifications. We take pride in exploring every avenue of your concept, ensuring the final design achieves the highest level of detail and depth.

This is not a one-way street. We believe in fostering a collaborative relationship with our clients, built on open communication and a clear understanding of your vision. Throughout the design process, we'll work closely with you, ensuring transparency at every step.

Once we've finalised your design sketch and you're thrilled with the outcome, we'll move on to pricing. To expedite this process and bring your vision to life sooner, letting us know your budget upfront is incredibly helpful. This allows us to tailor our recommendations to your desired price range.

After finalising both design and price, a non-refundable deposit of half the total cost will be required to secure your commission slot and initiate production. Unfortunately, changes to the design, fabric, or embellishments cannot be accommodated after the deposit is received.

Taking Your Measurements:

To ensure a perfect fit, we need your precise measurements. We offer two convenient options:

* Self-Measurement: Complete our detailed measurement chart at your own pace, in the comfort of your home. The chart provides clear instructions for each measurement point.

* Studio Fitting: Schedule a visit to our South Coast studio for a professional fitting by a member of our experienced team. This personalised approach ensures the most accurate measurements possible.

Once we have your precise measurements, our skilled pattern makers in our South Coast studio will transform your design into reality. A calico sample will be created for your first fitting, providing an opportunity to review the garment fit, visualise the fabric selection, and make any adjustments before final production begins.

With your final approval and fabric selection, your garment's journey to life begins! Our skilled artisans in the atelier meticulously bring your vision to reality. From cutting and sewing to curation and hand embellishments, every step is completed in-house by our talented team.

Commission turnaround times depend on the complexity of your request and your desired deadline. Be sure to let us know of any important dates you have in mind, so we can get your custom garment to you exactly when you need it. While typical commissions take 4-6 weeks, our talented team is known for its ability to meet tight deadlines. Don't hesitate to ask – we'll do our best to make your vision a reality on your timeline!

When your garment is complete, we'll send you photos along with the final invoice. Once the invoice is settled, we'll carefully pack your garment and prepare it for shipment (by post, collection, or hand delivery, depending on your preference). Throughout this process, we're committed to providing you with a truly exceptional experience.
