A variety of garments ranging from what would be considered traditional womenswear, to more masculine silhouettes with a feminine flair can be found here ... A sizing guide is available for which most pieces will be graded to.
Measurements of each sample piece will be listed along with a standard letter size. If you have concerns that a garment may need altered to fit your figure, send measurements and ask about alterations, or to have one made in your size.
Considering rampant labor and environmental abuse in the mainstream textile industry, materials used in Emerging From The Ether garments are for the most part, never sourced from mass textile manufacturers.
All materials sewn with are 100% vintage.
The only new stock materials used are natural rubber latex, which is a small batch specialty material, is biodegradable, and with proper care, can be made to last a lifetime.
With sourcing kept as local as possible, many fabrics, yarns, and trims are one-of-a-kind finds from estate sales, auctions and antique malls, making them even more special
Emerging From The Ether is a fashion line by Victor J. Barratt, from practical clothing to sundries & ephemera …
