CW Tailor Shop - Sydney Vawter 1.jpg

Online Shop

Timesmith Dress History will soon be re-locating from the UK to… Leiden in the Netherlands!

All current stock has been carefully packed and placed into storage. All shop listings therefore are currently showing Sold Out/Zero Inventory. As soon as we are settled into our new premises, a fresh inventory will be taken and the shop will be re-activated.

Meanwhile, feel free to browse the items shown so that you can see just some of the wide range of goods we make - everything 100% hand stitched using documented skills of the period - along with selected goods made by other reputable makers.

For BESPOKE and MADE TO ORDER items, please use the Contact Us form to enquire about availability and timeframes.

Please note: Rebecca continues to teach workshops during this transition period!

Book A Workshop to schedule a private workshop for your group, or watch Upcoming Events for upcoming workshops open to the public to book and attend.
