Directions ↗hours
By appointment, and open-door days announced on Instagram. Appointments are usually available Tuesday to Saturday, late morning to late afternoon.
What to expect
An hour, more or less. The rail of one-of-a-kind pieces, cloth for commissions, a mirror with good light. Come as you are; bring shoes if a gown is on your mind.
Getting here
Cedros Avenue runs parallel to the coast, a short walk from the Solana Beach train station. Street parking along the avenue, and lots behind the shops.
Bringing someone
One or two guests are welcome. For bridal, the people whose opinion you actually want.
