The House
A quiet atelier in the heart of Manhattan. A house built on reverence, precision, and the belief that every woman deserves to feel profoundly seen.
Our Philosophy
At Gramercy Atelier, we create bespoke gowns for life’s most meaningful moments.
Our work is rooted in a simple conviction:
that beauty is a partnership, and elegance is something we build together with you.
We believe clothing should honor a woman’s eye, her story, and the lineage she represents — especially on the day her child begins a new life.
Every silhouette, every sketch, every prototype is shaped with that reverence in mind.
A Personal Atelier, Not a Brand
Though we serve women across the country, our work remains deeply personal.
We learn your event, your taste, your hopes for the day.
We listen before we design.
We guide before we sketch.
And we treat your dress as a collaboration — a conversation between your vision and our craft.
It’s this human experience that clients consistently notice:
“I felt taken care of. I felt understood. I felt at ease.”
The Founders
Maria — Creative Director & Pattern-House Lead
A master pattern-maker with decades of couture experience, Maria shapes each gown from the inside out. Her eye is architectural; her hand is classical.
Every curve, every drape, every seam is adjusted with intention.
Clients describe her as “the calm center of the atelier” — guiding decisions with quiet confidence and impeccable taste.
Robert — Bespoke Client Steward
Robert leads each woman through the journey with clarity, ease, and a deep respect for her time and judgment. His role is simple but rare:
to make the process feel assured.
From your first conversation to your final fitting, he frames each step, answers every question, and ensures that the experience feels seamless — even from hundreds of miles away.
Together, we bring both sides of couture to you:
the technical mastery to shape the gown, and the human mastery to shape the experience.
We strive for the perfect fit & exceptional design.
Our Calling
Our team lives and breathes the true values, practices and craftsmanship of traditional tailoring.
We never stop testing the boundaries of design excellence & creativity.
