Cumberland Designs Corp Every Stitch Matters: Preserving heritage through sustainable & historical fashion. One-of-a-kind garments & décor from reclaimed textiles. Thoughtfully made.

Custom pieces, historical design & tailoring crafted in New Brunswick. Beautifully reimagined Bernadette Fowler, of Cumberland Corner Fashion Designs, first started sewing and designing clothing when she was a young girl. This developed into a love of all things historical especially the clothing and the process in its construction. The love of historical fashion design was a rabbit hole that Bern

adette never would have guessed she would have gone down and it has led to many trails from working with historical sights, museums, historical reenactors and the general public. With an education in Business Management and Fashion Design and a love for history, it was a natural “fit”. Bernadette is an advocate for educating young people in business. She has given presentations in schools on running a small business. Cumberland Corner’s specialty is historical clothing reproduction but also putting a historical twist on a modern cut. In addition to alterations and repairs, we like to find new uses for old fabrics such as making coats from grandma’s quilt, bags from old jeans and Christmas balls from scraps of fabric.

I dont know how this happens , but it does and i am both excited and nervious at the same time. As of Sept 1st Cumberland Corner Designs will have an uptown store at 82 Germain St. The price was right, the location acceptional and the space perfect for a store front and studio space. In the mean time we are working on a web page for the company and will also have an online store. Nothing like growing.

The store is stocked and Mary is hard at work.  Come visit us at area 506 open from 11-7 today as well as sat and sunday

This old girl looked very different when i bought it in the spring. Although she had hardly ever been sat in the velvet was a very faded dusty rose, the beautiful wood trim worn and broken in one spot and lint and dirt stuck in her tufting. She looked tired, at the end of her life, long forgotten and unloved, then i spotted her on an auction site, and they wanted next to nothing for her. I brought her home.

Now she has been given a little love and a huge face lift. I touched up all her rubbed off stain, hubby fixed her broken back and i gave the girl a dye job. Next i will be waxing the wood work to give it a lovely shine and she will be heading into AREA 506 for the summer and fall season. The feel of our store is a Victorian vibe and this little beauty will fit right in.
