Blouses from Goldmantel are special because it takes a long time to sew them. The fabric is put into hot water before Sewing in order to prevent further strong shrinking and every piece of fabric is hemed individually before being sewed together. So if you want to change someting in the future, it will be more easy to resew the individual parts. Also Every blouse is more like a scuptural, handcrafted Piece of art, where the sewing machine is used occasionally only. You will be aware of it the first time you wear a blouse from our atelier. We also wish, that the fabric lasts longer, that ´ s Why we don ´ t Use the iron or glue during the sewing process and also after the blouse is finished.
