MaisonCléo

MaisonCléo is a French designer label for women, founded in Calais in 2016 by Marie Dewet and her mother, Nathalie, who sewed the brand's first garments. The mother-daughter label makes romantic, feminine clothing by hand and to order, with a focus on silk dresses and blouses trimmed with Calais lace. The range includes dresses, blouses, skirts, cardigans, coats, bridal pieces and accessories. Every piece is handmade to order in its studio-atelier in the north of France, and any design can be made to measure. Signature pieces include the Madeleine silk dress with a Calais lace train, the Isaure muslin silk dress, the Constance silk blouse, the Javotte flared silk skirt, the Ramona lace cardigan and the Berthe organza veil. MaisonCléo uses only leftover fabrics from French couture houses and factories, such as silk and Calais lace. It is also transparent about how each garment is made, sharing details such as fabric costs and making time. The brand remains independent and run by Marie Dewet, and it has created exclusive pieces for Net-a-Porter, Selfridges and Printemps.
