About

 

Lolita Patterns was started in 2013 by two friends and fearless sewists, Nhi Huynh and Amity Gleason.  Both women were corporate warriors who were looking for more exciting designs than their current sewing patterns could provide.  They founded Lolita Patterns for the woman who has a bold and eccentric style but is confined by the professional wardrobes required in many work places.  All designs are made to work as essentials in your professional wardrobe with Japanese lolita style elements.

Lolita Patterns are expertly drafted and graded with sizes ranging from 0-26 to fit most women. We use a separate block for the smaller sizes and larger sizes resulting in a dramatically better fit than most home sewers are accustomed to. Each pattern is designed to be created in an assortment of different fabrics with the ability to make multiple style variations from one pattern.  Our unique diagram based instructions make it easy for every culture to follow along.  Patterns will be released in hard copy and e-patterns to accommodate pattern preferences and eliminate shipping costs. As each pattern comes out, Lolita Patterns will produce numerous tutorials and sew-alongs on the blog for those who crave more details and design variations

Lolita Patterns is not just a pattern company.  Because our company is based in the heart of the Los Angeles garment district, we are able to provide you with access to special fabrics, notions and trims to help make your garments stand out and look professional. There will also be make-up and DIY accessories tutorials to help complete your Lolita Patterns look.

  1. Good luck with your new venture. Looking forward to the “sew a-long”.

  2. Go, corporate warriors, go!! I think it’s wonderful that you started Lolita Patterns together. Good luck to you and wishing you lots of fun.

  3. I would love to get to know Lolita style. Unfortunately, getting sewing patterns and information for Japanese fashion hasn’t been easy. I look forward to what you come up with.
