At Pelumi Ofere, the most intimate thing we offer is a garment built around a single woman's body and story. Your silhouette. Your occasion. Your intention. Built to last.
Begin Your InquiryBespoke · Atelier Campaign
Our custom order service begins with a conversation. From there, we work with you — your measurements, your occasion, your intention — to create something singular. Not a variation on something else. Something entirely yours.
Every bespoke piece carries the same cowrie shell embroidery language, the same earth tone palette, and the same slow construction as our collection pieces — but built around the specific geometry and story of one woman.
Begin Your InquiryWe discuss your event date and work backward from it. Your piece is never rushed, but it will be ready. Timelines are agreed at the start and honoured always.
Not standard sizing. Not approximations. Your exact measurements — taken and recorded — are the only template we use. The garment is built around your body, not the other way around.
Cowrie shell embroidery is our house language. For bespoke pieces, the placement, density, and arrangement are designed specifically for your garment — not transferred from another.
Before a single stitch is placed, you approve the sketch. Before fabric is cut, you confirm. We do not proceed without your sign-off at every significant stage.
We design for the specific moment this garment will be worn — its setting, its significance, its audience. The fabric weight, the silhouette, the hem length — all calibrated to context.
If there is a cultural element, a family symbol, or a personal story you want woven into the design — we will find a way to honour it. Bespoke means the piece knows who wore it.
Share your vision, your occasion, and any initial thoughts. We'll come back to you within 48 hours to begin the conversation properly.
A one-on-one conversation with our design team. We discuss your silhouette preferences, fabric choices, embroidery placement, and any custom details.
We sketch your piece and present it for your approval. Fabric swatches, embroidery layouts, and silhouette details are confirmed at this stage.
Your piece is made by hand in our Lagos atelier. Cowrie shell embroidery is placed stitch by stitch. No shortcuts. No substitutions. No rush.
Your piece arrives wrapped with intention. Along with it, care instructions — because a piece made this slowly deserves to last just as long.
A Pelumi Ofere bespoke piece is not just a garment. It is an understanding of the moment you are walking into — and how you want to feel when you arrive.
For traditional ceremonies, naming days, and owambe occasions where presence must be felt before you speak.
The bride. The mother of the bride. The woman who holds the room without trying. We dress all three.
For film premieres, galas, industry events, and any occasion where the room will be watching and you have already decided what you want them to see.
A birthday that means something. An anniversary worth marking. A moment you want to remember by what you wore when you chose yourself.
"Every woman carries her own silhouette. We build garments that understand yours."— Pelumi Ofere · Founder
