PRETTIE LANES offers much more than a handmade, period - authentic design.
It sells the new, traditionally fashioned alternative to
true vintage, in your size!
Franziska Schlupski PRETTIE LANES is specialized in the iconic fashion of the 1940s and 1950s. Nostalgic styles for all the ladies, who cherish the femininity and romance of that era. Authenticity, the attention to details and timeless elegance shape the collections.
With vintage sewing techniques and carefully selected fabrics and materials PRETTIE LANES intends to create designs that are as
authentic as possible, yet no reproductions. Metal zippers, rayon seam hemming, hand-crochet belt loops, fabrics in limited editions and a lot of handstitching are just a few things used to
develop this 'vintage look and feel' without(!) a modern twist.
Feel what it is like to wear a handmade, rare vintage garment and enjoy the advantage of simply choosing your inividual size.
All designs are handmade in PRETTIE LANES' private in-house atelier in Switzerland (not open for public) and are produced in
limited editions only that are exclusively available online.
Besides ready to wear (RTW) products, made to order and customized garments are available.

PRETTIE LANES being a slow fashion brand sources
materials and notions for the designs mainly in Europe. Furthermore, a key value is to use natural, biodegradable fabrics instead of plastic fabrics (i.e. no Polyester, no Elasthane) and to
make use of recycled or deadstock fabrics. Each piece by Prettie Lanes is 100% made in Switzerland - one piece at a time.
