So thrilled to introduce you to Leona! A piece that's nothing short of spectacular.

Crafted with love from beautiful deadstock lace, this coat is not like any other lace piece you've ever owned; it's an exquisite work of art, and it's designed to make you feel both feminine and empowered. Beautiful inside out and coming with covered seams with bias binding, Leona is the epitome of craftsmanship.

Leona Vicario, the muse for this piece, was a trailblazer in her own right. She fearlessly fought for her beliefs during a pivotal time in history. She was one of the first female journalists in Mexico, driven by strong feminist beliefs. Leona took many risks and sacrificed much wealth in the name of liberation. When you wear Leona, you carry a piece of that history with you, and you embody the strength and beauty of women who've made their mark on the world and channel those vibes effortlessly.

Leona is designed to give you that perfect balance – the versatility to be super feminine and exceptionally powerful.

It features a stunning bow closure at the front, which you can style as a tie too. But wait, there's more – it even comes with pockets because I know you love that practical touch.

Now, let's dive into the real showstopper – those magnificent balloon sleeves adorned with meticulously hand-stitched embroidered flowers over delicate lace ruffles. They exude drama, elegance, and an edgy vibe, all at once. Just picture sliding your arms into those sleeves; it's like stepping into a different era when exquisitely crafted garments were the norm. But here's my gift to you – you can experience it right now!

Leona is not just a coat. You can effortlessly style it as a light coat over your favourite outfits, adding that touch of elegance to your everyday look. Or belt it up to create a dress look that's bound to discretely turn heads.

So why wait? Indulge yourself. Let your style reflect the powerful and beautiful woman you are. Order Leona now and step into a world where grace, versatility and powerful style go hand in hand. You will thank yourself later!

Please note that every Leona coat is a masterpiece. Each embroidery patch has been crafted by a family with three generations of artisans in Zinacatan Chiapas. This means each embroidery piece is a one-of-a-kind creation, displaying its distinctive and asymmetrical beauty. Therefore, every dress is unique, and the embroidery will be slightly different that the one showcased in the photos. And it features an oversized fit and dropped armpits.

Keep in mind that due to their meticulous craftsmanship, the waiting time for your order is between 6 to 8 weeks. Don't miss out!

My "Love it" Guarantee.

I make clothes for women, and after doing it for as long as I have, I know what women love to see and feel when they wear my pieces.

So that's why I have a "Love It" Guarantee, which is -

If you don't love it the instant you see yourself in it, I will help you to find yourself a replacement that does make you feel that way.

Ts & Cs:

The replacement item has to be the same or a greater price as the piece you bought in first place, minor fitting for certain pieces (like the hem) can be included in the price.

Items damaged as a result of wear and tear are not considered faulty. However, where possible, I will be happy to repair your much-loved pieces for a cost according to the job that needs to be done.

To be exchanged, (within the first 10 days after you received your order) garments must be in perfect condition, unused, with tags still on, so be careful when trying on, particularly around strong scents or pet hair. Returned items that are damaged, soiled, altered or no longer with a product tag attached will not be accepted and will be returned to you.

All shipping costs for returning your pieces are your expenses and are non-refundable.

I strongly recommend using a trackable shipping service or purchasing shipping insurance as unfortunately I can’t guarantee that I will receive your returned item.
