Our Story
Our garments are illustrated stories: each one carries a plush character, a narrated tale, and the imprint of the hands that sew them with love.
It’s not just children’s fashion; it’s a bridge between play, reading, and purpose — a world where imagination blossoms and every stitch transforms lives.
In an increasingly digital world, Tailored Stories was born with a simple yet powerful formula: to return to children the magic of the tangible through clothing, play, and literature.
What began in 2021 with prototypes, hand-sewn dolls, and stories printed on paper evolved into a journey of innovation and purpose. With each step, new voices, hands, and talents joined us: seamstresses, illustrators, storytellers, and musicians who found in this project both meaningful work and a space to create.
Today, our garments are much more than children’s fashion — they are stories to wear. Each piece features original illustrations, a hidden plush toy inside the pocket, and a QR code that opens the door to narrated and musical stories. In this way, children don’t just get dressed; they read, play, and dream with every stitch.
Responsible On-Demand Production
Thanks to our partnership with Maravillarte SAS, pioneers in direct-to-fabric digital printing, we are able to print each illustration together with the cutting pattern, ensuring that every garment is unique, precise, and faithful to the original design. Tailored Stories is not just a brand; it is an entirely new narrative format that brings together three worlds — toys, books, and fashion — into a single product.
Each garment in our children’s collection is lovingly crafted through Kornit’s eco-friendly printing process, using vibrant, water-based inks that are safe for children and the environment. By conserving water and reducing chemical waste, we ensure our creations leave a lighter footprint on Mother Earth.
Nuestro enfoque on-demand Our on-demand approach means that each garment is made especially for your child, with dedication and care. This not only reduces waste but also allows us to offer a delightful variety of designs that reflect your unique style while bringing comfort and joy to children’s wardrobes.

GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard): Kornit supports processes and materials that comply with GOTS, promoting organic and sustainable practices in textile production.
