Designing It, Creating It, Photographing It ... How We Get It All To You
Melissa tests media for new images	Finding the exciting, luxurious, rare items we offer, cajoling the artisans into making what doesn't exist, getting it here, and the ongoing photography which makes it possible for you to see everything isn't as hedonistic as wearing cashmere socks or fine Swiss underwear! But the ongoing two-continent, multi-country quest can be fun ... or funny ... so we decided to share some of it with you in a short photo essay. Is it wonderful to wear a different pair of socks and underwear every day. Absolutely! But laundering them, before and after measurements, judging the fit and feel of hundreds of items gives pause to the pleasure. Nonetheless, when we say we test everything we sell, we mean it.
Do we enjoy working with gorgeous models? Duh! But around the 2,500th photo in the tenth hour under 6,000 watts of halogens, beauty tends to become obscured by sweat. Truthfully, we wouldn't trade it for anything! Here's a peek behind the scenes of CustomShirt1.

Some of what we offer begins with a visit to the Zimmerli design Studios in Aarburg, Switzerland		And often comes down to "How do I wear this one?"
