THE STORY OF OUR WORKSHOP
Opening its doors in 1925, Specialty Pleaters has a rich history of supplying many famous Melbourne fashion houses including Le Lourve, Melbourne Opera Company & Toni Maticevksi.
Our workshop is the last of two operating pleating workshops in the southern hemisphere, owned and run by
Simon Zdraveski.
We house an array of intricate, hand-made cardboard moulds and produce an array of products: simple accordion & knife pleats; 'sunray' pieces in various designs for skirts; machine pleated rolls of fabric as well as one-off artistic pieces to suit unique creative projects.
​
We focus on quality and craftsmanship.
