The Winkelmann Archives
A personal note from Adrienne Winkelmann, ONZM
New Zealand Fashion Designer
After decades designing for women of influence, I’m proud to pass on a treasured chapter of my sartorial story.
The Winkelmann Archives—an exclusive collection of timeless patterns and original designs—now find their home with The Bespoke Dresser®.
With her expert eye and heartfelt commitment to dressing women well, the Winkelmann legacy continues—elegant, empowering, and enduring.
The Winkelmann Archives now feature alongside her highly regarded Wardrobe Care services. Whether refreshing your seasonal essentials or commissioning a bespoke piece, you’ll experience the same meticulous attention to detail, discreet service and style advisory you know from working with me.
This is more than a new offering—it’s a continuation of a philosophy we share, that every woman deserves to feel remarkable in her clothes.
Warmest wishes,
Adrienne Winkelmann
With the launch of The Winkelmann Archives - all new garment queries will be handled through Yvette, The Bespoke Dresser® and those clients that are in personal contact with Adrienne, please do keep in touch.
Made to order bookings here.
Step One
Yvette will take you through The Winkelmann Archives — a beautiful new catalogue of Adrienne’s designs, illustrating her iconic jackets, dress silhouettes and workwear essentials, with complementing fabric swatches chosen from the extensive fabric library in O’Connell Street.
The bespoke consultation process allows time to assess your unique wardrobe needs, fit preferences and any seasonal gaps. Discuss what you have loved wearing and what could possibly be updated or revived. This conversation can be over coffee at your local cafe or home, wherever you are most comfortable.
Step Two
Make your selection of made-to-order garments. Once you have placed your order, our expert tailors swiftly bring your garments to life—transforming them from concept to calico and then cloth. It is incredibly special to still be crafting in New Zealand, a tradition worth celebrating. When all is ready, Yvette will arrange a fitting to ensure they are tailored to perfection.
Step Three
A detailed invoice is provided with payment terms as agreed at time of consultation. Your garments are delivered to home or work via personal concierge or courier.
Special note
This a very special offering from Adrienne for her closest friends and clients—so you can keep dressing well in Winkelmann. If you have something in mind you would love to update or replace, please reach out hello@thebespokedresser.com
