One of a kind handmade clothing by Gilded by GildedEccentric

After attaining my degree in fashion design via FIDM Los Angeles, I worked in the industry for over a year as assistant designer of a wholesale clothing company in LA. The day-ins and outs of mass production only intensified my need to produce more meaningful, one-of-a-kind garments.

It was then that my husband Jacob and I left Los Angeles and made the move to Carmel, California to be closer to the gallery Collectors Galleries, where his abstract expressionist artworks are represented. In October 2012 we got the opportunity to open up our own studio space- and it was then my dream for my own clothing studio seemed within reach.

We now run Brest Studios Fine Art & Atelier (www.breststudios.com), where Jacob paints live daily and I juggle fulfilling orders for my established fashion illustration business, and designing and creating my pieces for the upcoming February 2013 FallWinter launch.

I want my customer to feel the clothing she is in is as unique as she is- I find a strange inspiration in the complex make-up that makes every individual inherently different. I hope to capture that in the clothing I make.

I love a juxtaposition of emotions and textures in my designs- soft and hard, edgy and feminine. Leather, lace, velvet and jacquards are my go-to fabrics, always with vintage hardware and beading to achieve an un-replicatable finished product.

We unfortunately do not accept refunds. Do to the time and money we invest in being sure our garments and accessories are accurately shot and represented, we ask that you read each listing closely and fully to gather the details on the item you are purchasing. Each item is listed with full garment/design specs, size range, and tips on measuring your body. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us before purchasing.

However, we will gladly accept exchanges and fulfill alterations for free on any garment/sizable jewelry piece that does not fit as specified in the listing when you receive it. Please find on each listing whether or not the item can be sized!

We understand shopping online is more challenging as you cannot see the item in person- as a smaller company instantly re-investing each sale into our next collection, this literally prevents me from affording issuing refunds from purchases where the information provided was not carefully read.

Each of our item's shipping includes US tracking and delivery confirmation in efforts to prevent lossages. For International tracking options, please convo me to upgrade to registered mail.

Many items, especially those with vintage non-replaceable elements include both tracking and insurance to protect your purchase in the event of loss or damage.
In the event of breakage or damage due to shipping, please contact us immediately within 24 hours from date of confirmed delivery. Non-reproductable items, such as designs with vintage elements, are eligible for a full refund, exchange, or repair if possible upon shipping damage.

If your item does not have included insurance and you would like to add this purchase protection, please contact us prior to payment.

Our refund and shipping policies are hugely due to the fact that the item you are purchasing is extremely unique and in most cases irreplaceable. Please be sure to fully read the details on the item you wish to buy, and the shipping protection included in purchase.
