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.

Please note: Rebecca continues to offer lectures and workshops during this transition period! Go to Guest Speaking & Teaching to schedule an event for your site or group, or watch Upcoming Events for upcoming workshops open to the public to book and attend.

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.
