Star Designers Conservation

Conservation is an acquired skill, and it is our passion. All garments are handled with care during the evaluation, restoration and archival processes. more

Evaluation
The process begins with an expert evaluation of each garment. Each garment is carefully examined for damage, deteriorated details and missing trims. These observations are added to the existing inventory notes and referred to for the duration of the project.

Repair
During the repair process we supervise each step including the cleaning. We start with techniques used to construct the original garment. We work closely with the designer and factor in period techniques as well as modern materials and decide on an individual approach to repairing and renewing each garment.

Being based in New York City, we have all the necessary resources to support our conservation requirements.
