Slow fashion made to order

Trunkshow & By special order

Capsa has opted for a made-to-order system with the aim of exploring a new method of creating, producing and consuming fashion – a method that is less wasteful and feels more meaningful than the current mainstream fashion cycle.

Favoring gentle production methods, local sourcing and natural materials, we produce only what is truly wanted – giving value back to creation, patience and desire.

The main collection is presented through a recurring trunkshow capsule collection system, while certain select pieces or special requests can be accommodated through a separate system called »by special order«

Trunkshow

The capsule trunkshow system functions much like the work of an artist would – the collection is worked around a specific theme, then presented and left open for ordering during a set period of time.

HOW IT WORKS

Creation

Thoughtfully created in our Paris studio – Capsas collections are developed as a series of smaller capsules with a central creative concept for each new release.
Trunkshow

Pieces are then presented on our website available for pre-order for a limited time. When you shop, you are placing a personal order directly with the designer.
Manufacturing

Orders are passed on to our collaborators to be produced in their ateliers in Paris and Lyon. Pieces are only made as specified, reducing waste and over-production to a minimum.
Delivery

Orders are delivered directly to customers upon completion after a 5–12 week production period. Purchases may be reconsidered and returned within a 15 day period for a full refund, with the exception of pieces bought »by special order«.

By special order

This is a separate section of the Capsa universe and functions slightly differently than the main collection.

It is a way for us to occasionally put through especially intricate pieces that may demand an additional level of attention in make, finish, fit or construction. It may also serve as a way for customers to make a custom request or to order from previous capsules when possible. Please keep in mind that pieces ordered through this system are not fully refundable and may come with a surcharge.

Pre-ordering from this section is possible during the same dates as when the main collection trunkshows are open. During the ordering process we take particular care to discuss your measurements and personal preferences in detail, as well as answer any additional questions you may have in order to find the best solutions for you.

All Capsa pieces are made to order – but some require more precision than others. The »by special order« pieces have the same easy versatile look and feel as the main collection – but are shaped and tailored in a way that demands an additional level of attention to make sure the right size and model is selected. Please contact us on contact@capsaparis.com for more details.
Garments purchased as »by special order« will receive a partial refund only. We do our very best to communicate extensively with you in order to ensure you will receive a style you will love. During this process, we discuss your measurements for the best possible fit and answer any questions you may have.
