Story

Finding made-to-measure clothing is not always easy. A dress may look perfect on a model in your social media feed, but that does not tell you how it might fit you. STRIP connects customers with independent makers and filters the feed to show posts from people with similar body measurements, making it easier to imagine how a piece could fit.

Features

Keep your measurementsMade-to-measure clothing goes beyond dresses and suits: it includes merchandise, cosplay, film costumes and uniforms. We developed a standardized measurement system that lets makers create clothing without measuring the customer in person. Measurements are private and shared only with makers who receive an order.
