Contemporary couture silhouette in a dark editorial setting

The Craftory, Couture by Rimi

You envision it.
Rimi creates it.

From an idea, inspiration image, special fabric, or garment you want reimagined, work personally with Rimi to create a one-of-a-kind design for your measurements, your occasion, and your story.

Your Vision. Your Garment.

It Doesn’t Start With a Dress. It Starts With You.

You don’t need a finished design. Bring a photograph, a sketch, a color, a fabric, an existing garment you love, a memory, an occasion, or simply tell Rimi how you want to feel when you walk into the room.

Together, you’ll shape the silhouette, fabric, details and finishing for bridal, eveningwear, occasionwear, contemporary, fusion, and custom women’s fashion until the idea becomes unmistakably yours.

Three Ways to Begin

Start with what you have.

01

I Have a Vision

You know what you want, or have inspiration saved. Share your ideas, references or sketches with Rimi for an original interpretation designed specifically for you.

Bring Your Vision
02

I Have a Fabric

Bring fabric you already own, new, vintage, inherited or sentimental, and let Rimi reimagine it into a modern gown, dress, jacket, skirt, corset or statement piece.
