A retired dressmaker, Liebe begins to make clothes for money again after her partner loses his job as a singer in a pub.
In the process of regaining her skills, Liebe attracts the interest of younger designers, who are fascinated with her traditional techniques and use of tulle and sequins. As such, Liebe gains a following and her newfound popularity reignites her passion for her craft and opens a door to a new chapter in her career and life.
