What we wear is a promise to ourselves about who we are becoming.

In seasons of change, we don’t hide in our clothes. We anchor in them.

The experience

For Black women in transition.

The Fitting is a 90-minute immersive experience for women changing in the world, within systems and inside themselves. Some are stepping into their power. Others are simply refusing to shrink.

Drawing on her made-to-measure work with Dent de Man, including a recent fitting with Angela Bassett, Maylis will explore why powerful women choose the garments they do, and what those choices say to the world and to ourselves.

In intimate fitting circles

Five chapters

Like any true fitting, this is a moment to be seen, measured and made for. This time, from the inside out.

  1. Armor & Becoming
  2. Unshrinking
  3. Anchor Pieces
  4. Dressed for the Rooms We Enter
  5. Worn Power

Come as you are.Leave tailored.
