Ivey Abitz Bespoke Clothing is made just for you.

Bespoke garments are made just for you, to your specifications. When clothing is made just for you, it’s truly yours. Such authenticity is rare these days, but then, so are you.

Ivey Abitz bespoke garments are an original blend of historic and modern sensibilities designed to please the creative eye, and they are found exclusively at the Ivey Abitz online shop.

We make made-to-order bespoke garments for every day and special events. With their antique feel and modern appeal, Ivey Abitz designs are sought out by selective individuals that believe clothing has a transformative power and a meaningful impact on everyday life.

Ivey Abitz is exquisitely created by hand in the USA.

Bespoke Garments Work Together

When you choose bespoke garments from Ivey Abitz, they work together. We planned it that way.

Designing a cohesive collection of garments is no small feat. Our story begins in 2006 when we started selling Ivey Abitz bespoke garments, and we’ve been building the collection ever since. For a snapshot of our first decade, see the article Decade of Design Debuts.

Our refined design concepts connect every element of the collection: dresses and frocks, jackets, shirts, overlays, duster coats, trousers, skirts, and accessories. Because they are made by hand with love and care, each bespoke garment has the integrity that is authentic to the Ivey Abitz brand.

Creating Ivey Abitz over the years has beautified our lives as well as the lives of Ivey Abitz clients. You can read their stories at Ivey Abitz Voices. We hope wearing Ivey Abitz will beautify your life as well.

Bespoke Garments Enable You to Live Everyday Life

One of the best reasons to wear bespoke garments is that they help you do your most important job – being you.

Imagine wearing a uniform to work every day. Your uniform gives you a sense of purpose and pride. It’s practical, as well. Maybe it has special pockets for tools.

Now imagine having to go to work in a uniform designed for a completely unrelated job. There are no pockets for your special tools. It feels all wrong because it is designed for somebody else. Your work suffers as a result.

Wearing clothing that wasn’t made for you creates one more hurdle in a world that already has plenty of obstacles.

Now imagine the pleasure of going to work in a uniform designed especially for you. It has a special pocket in just the right place to hold your favourite tool. It’s made of fabric that soothes your sensitive skin. It keeps you cool in summer and warm in winter. In this kind of uniform, your work soars in efficiency, creativity, and productivity. You’re not thinking about what you’re wearing; you’re thinking about your work.

Ivey Abitz bespoke garments are like a good work uniform – they enable you to live your everyday life in comfort and ease.

Some of our clients even wear their Ivey Abitz as a work uniform, like Cindy of Saturday Farm, who tends her sheep in Ivey Abitz bespoke garments. Cindy was featured in the first volume of Authentic Everyday, the Ivey Abitz magazine.

Cindy, owner of Saturday Farm, makes every part of her life as authentic as her Baa Boys. In her search for authentic clothing, she learned about Ivey Abitz bespoke garments through a friend’s recommendation.

Bespoke Garments are Easy to Order

One of the first questions you might have is, “How do I select the right size?”

Each design product page has a measurement chart. These are NOT body measurements. Rather, these are measurements of the garment as it lays on a flat surface. You may need to measure some of your other clothes in this manner in order to get a sense for how our garments will fit you.

Read more details about how to measure for your Ivey Abitz bespoke order at this page: How to Choose a Size.

Selecting a fabric is a big part of what makes your Ivey Abitz design authentically yours. Ivey Abitz creates a palette of elegant natural fabrics for each new collection, and you make the final selection when placing your order.

If you are new to the collection, take a moment to familiarize yourself with the fabric palette for the current season at our Shop by Fabrics page. You’ll find detailed photos of each fabric along with descriptions and care instructions.
