The craft of tailoring meets the art of sculpture in this outfit composed of a long skirt and a classic suit jacket. Sartorial sculptural art is the concept behind the creation: the exacting technique of men's tailoring is applied to obtain sculptural forms of all kinds.

Crossing all boundaries
- • Mika’Ela sees garments as a sculpture
- • She directed a feature on the art of tailoring
- • She took part in the World Congress of Master Tailors in Paris
Mika'Ela Fisher takes the art of tailoring into new directions. At the crossroads between sculpture and architecture, her approach to garment-making goes beyond clothing: it becomes art, “sculptural sartorial art,” as she says. Drawing on her in-depth understanding and technical mastery acquired from over ten years of training, she explores applying men's suit tailoring methods to women's bodies. In addition to classic made-to-measure pieces, Mika'Ela creates experimental designs, where the textile becomes a sculpture in its own right. German-born, Mika’Ela trained in Münich under three different masters, including a meaningful time at the haute couture house Max Dietl, and moved to Paris after qualifying as a master tailor. Since then, she has consistently evolved her artistic approach, honoring her craft by introducing it to new art forms.

Designed for the World Congress of Master Tailors in Paris, in 2001, this wedding dress is made according to the techniques of men’s tailoring. Here, the method is re-appropriated and explored on a women's garment. The precision of the sculptural lines and the accuracy of the finishes reflect the rigour of the technique.

Quatre gris
Following the concept of sculptural sartorial art, this ensemble is made by applying men's tailoring techniques to achieve sculptural forms. Fitted at the waist and flared, the suit jacket is completed by a long skirt, also flared on two layers. The clear lines and the accuracy of the proportions reflect the rigour of the method.
