How to Order a CORTOMFIT™ Piece
A CORTOMFIT™ piece does not begin with fabric.
It begins with a decision — that something will exist for you alone, and for no one else.
Two Ways to Acquire a PYDAXA Piece
There are two ways to acquire a PYDAXA piece — and the distinction defines the experience.
Ready Pieces are existing works — created once, in a single size, as complete objects. Once acquired, they are never reproduced.
CORTOMFIT™ Pieces are made from the beginning — built to your exact measurements, over weeks of handwork. Not every design is available in this format. Each product listing indicates availability.
If you are unsure, we will guide you.
Step One: The Enquiry
Reach out through our CORTOMFIT™ enquiry form.
Tell us what you are looking for — the occasion, the silhouette, the level of PYDAXA Inlay™ detail you are drawn to.
Every enquiry is reviewed personally. We respond within 48 hours.
Step Two: Your Measurements
There is no video call required. We have designed a simple measurement process that you can complete at home, at your own pace.
You will provide two things: your standard size reference (the size you typically wear in international sizing) and your personal measurements using our CORTOMFIT™ Measurement Guide.
The measurements we require are:
- Shoulder Width — across the top of the shoulders
- Bust — fullest part of the chest
- Natural Waist (High Waist) — the narrowest point of the torso, approximately 1–2 inches above the navel
- Hips — fullest part of the hips
- Arm Length — from shoulder point to wrist
- High Waist to Ankle — measured from the natural waist straight down to the ankle bone
- Total Height — from the top of the head to the floor, without shoes

Our Measurement Guide provides exact reference points for each measurement.
If needed, we will guide you — precisely.
Step Three: The Proposal
We present a written proposal — detailing the design direction, master silk selection, PYDAXA Inlay™ placement, PYDAXA Matrix Stitch™ structure (where applicable), timeline, and investment.
You review. You refine.
Nothing proceeds until it is exactly right.
Step Four: The Making
Once confirmed, our artisans begin.
Each piece is worked by hand, by a single maker where the technique requires it.
We update you at key stages — not as a notification, but as part of the process.
Step Five: The Delivery
Your piece arrives with full documentation — materials, technique, and creation timeline.
This is provenance.
The piece is ready to wear — and made to be kept.
Begin Your CORTOMFIT™
If you are ready to begin — or to understand before deciding — we invite your enquiry.
This is not an order.
It is the beginning of something that will not exist again.
"Worn once. Remembered always."
