There are many techniques utilized which are meant to create an item that is LOVELY, comfortable, wearable, and flattering, as well as beautiful. The machines and the tailor have done their best to create a gorgeous couture wearable art item. Because to me, that tailor, it is art. Sewing is my passion. About that word couture, it means hand cut and sewn, and that is what you will receive. It is not "Haute Couture": that is a strictly controlled list in France, and it takes about 5-10 people to create those amazing pieces. About the Brand: V2Now is the name for nRichments apparel line; created by the owner, me. Items are made from Vintage or Antique patterns using vintage or antique fabrics and trims in creations for humans of today. We've been at it for just over 7 years, and crafting for over 25 years. "We" is the operative word, as this would not have happened without the sharing and giving from friends and family over the years. Starting as a child, sewing was originally a means to an end. It became a craft and artistic outlet during recovery from various life and more events. Keeping busy has transcended into a need to create and share the love of vintage design and fabric with those who also adore the look and feel of lovely things that fit well, and look good on us. I’m Going forward with presence, one stitch at a time. Please see all photos which are included in the listing description.
