Everything at Peridoe is done by hand. Designs are created in-house using both draping techniques and mathematical paper patterning. The fabric is dyed in-house with homemade dyes using homegrown and locally foraged plants. All garments and accessories are also cut and sewn in-house either in small batches or made-to-order. Everything is crafted in the highest quality with attention to detail and made to last
