Ordering Process
Ordering a bespoke cope involves several design decisions, but we aim to make the process as simple as possible. Please follow the steps below as a guide.
Step 1. Choose your cope style
The first step in creating your bespoke cope is to choose the style you would like. Our standard styles are the Westminster, Cathedral, Abbey and Portsmouth, though we can also look into custom patterns. Factors in the design choice are the shape of the hood and where the hood hangs in relation to the orphreys.
Another option to consider is whether or not you would like elements of the cope to be embroidered. Embroidery can be done solely on the hood, or on the orphreys and morse also.
Whether you already have a clear vision of the cope you would like, or are unsure where to start with the design choices, we are here to help. Contact us to start the conversation.

Step 2. Choose your fabric & braid combinations
After determining the style of the cope and the presence of embroidered features, the next step is to choose your fabrics and trimmings. We are pleased to offer over 200 exclusive fabrics, as well as a wide range of braids, fringes, tassels and linings. Our experienced design team is on hand to guide you through the possible combinations, and to help with decision making if needed. Below is an example of the elements you can choose.
