ABOUT US

At The Vintage Couturière, we believe couture is more than clothing—it is an heirloom of identity, artistry, and legacy. Our work bridges the world of haute couture craftsmanship with the timeless art of couture portraiture, creating pieces that are not only worn but remembered, celebrated, and immortalised.

Every gown, every stitch, and every detail is made by hand in the tradition of the great couture ateliers. Each couture piece is designed as a living work of art—crafted to embody elegance, individuality, and permanence in a world that often rushes toward the disposable.

Our signature #immortalised portraiture series extends this philosophy beyond the atelier, blending couture fashion with fine art portraiture. Each portrait session transforms our clients into muses, capturing them in garments and imagery designed to preserve their beauty and story for generations. These portraits are not fleeting photographs; they are modern-day heirlooms—luxury artefacts of personal history.

The Vintage Couturière is more than a label. It is an experience, a collaboration between designer, artisan, and muse. Through couture and portraiture, we ensure that every client is not only exquisitely dressed, but forever immortalised.

For those who desire privileged access, we invite you to join The Couture Concierge Privé. This exclusive membership offers first viewings of new couture pieces, private invitations to portraiture experiences, and priority access to couture and portraiture consultations. It is your gateway to a world where couture and portraiture meet timeless artistry.
