🧵 Behind the scenes of production: How our chiffon tunic is created step by step
Share
When you look at our finished tunic, you might think: “A beautiful piece for the beach.” But behind what you hold in your hands is more than just fabric and thread. It is a hand-sewn story from the center of Zlín , where delicate chiffon is transformed into an elegant beach tunic thanks to the skilled hands of Czech seamstresses. 🇨🇿💛
Let us take you on a little behind-the-scenes tour. ✨
🏢 Where does it all begin? In the heart of Zlín
Our tunics are made in a small tailoring company in the legendary Modus department store - in the very center of Zlín. 🏙️
🪡 Where crowds used to flock to the fashion of Bata's city, today you will find a calm but creative environment where each piece of clothing is created with maximum care and precision .
✂️ Step 1: Material selection
The basis of each tunic is genuine chiffon - a light, delicate and airy material that we import from Italy 🇮🇹 and Greece.
🔍 These are not synthetic substitutes - chiffon is sensitive to handling, but its airiness and lightness make the tunic an ideal piece for summer.
📐 Step 2: Cutting and preparation
Chiffon is beautiful, but it's difficult. It slips, tears, and can't be sewn like regular fabric. That's why only experienced seamstresses who know how to work with it slowly and precisely can handle it.
📏 Each kaftan is hand-cut according to a proven cut, which we have tuned to flatter as many body types as possible.
🧵 Step 3: Hand sewing and detailed processing
💡 The moment the chiffon goes under the needle, the most demanding part of production comes. The seamstresses at Modus work with great precision – every seam must be precise, every line smooth.
👩🔧 Our seamstresses are not "just seamstresses" - they are masters of their craft , who breathe shape, function, and life into fabric.
🔍 Step 4: Quality control
Each tunic undergoes careful inspection:
✔️ whether the seams are straight
✔️ that there are no threads sticking out anywhere
✔️ and that every detail meets the standards we have maintained from the beginning.
That's why our tunics come back in reviews with one word : enthusiasm . 🙌
🎁 Step 5: Packaging and shipping
We will fold the finished tunic, package it without unnecessary plastic, and send it to your home with a personal message. 📦
From the hands of the seamstresses at Modus directly to you - without intermediate warehouses, without mass production, without an anonymous chain.
❤️ Why do we do it this way?
Because we believe that fashion should have meaning.
We don't want to sell "just clothes", but the story you carry with you .
Behind each of our products are real people, handmade work, and respect for craftsmanship .
