Marlene's Atelier

Hi, I’m Marlene Franke. Tailoring is who I am, not what I do.  Marlene’s Atelier is where I open the doors to my workshop and share the knowledge, standards, and beauty of bespoke tailoring with the world.

My journey began designing high-end custom suits for women, and my passion for the craft took me to London, where I studied at the prestigious Savile Row Academy. In 2019, I founded the American Bespoke Tailoring Academy, where for six years I taught students worldwide the art of bespoke craftsmanship.

Now, in this new chapter, my atelier is simply the place I go to do what I love most, tailoring.  Each week, I invite you to step inside as I share timeless techniques, my thought process as a tailor, and the artistry behind bespoke garments.

If you share a passion for tailoring and creating garments of true beauty, welcome. Come into the atelier, and let’s create something beautiful together.
