Our Fabrics

Our gowns are available from stock in our easy care fabric which was chosen by our customers. The feedback we heard from our customers suggested frequently they were “too hot” and you wanted a garment that wasn’t too heavy and allowed them to “breathe” while they were on stage under the lights, or whilst they were at the centre of attention. Additionally, it was suggested that a fabric which is easy to look after and that could be transported easily, would be beneficial there are clearly benefits to being able to wash, transport, and iron choir robes in a domestic environment.

We specialise in making bespoke academic hoods and personalised stoles and sashes. We can make single hoods to your exacting requirements and have made hoods in glorious tartan fabrics for choirs, as well as, academic hoods for every type of academic, or non-degree awarding body. Our personalised stoles are made from beautiful bridal satin and feature an interlace fabric to give them a rich and luxurious feel with a weight of approximately 325gsm. We use both embroidery and vinyl printing for the finery and produce these in their thousands every year for academic institutions and churches around the globe.
