Ready for the Races.
I love a good fascinator. But I see nothing fun in those beige and boring “mother of the bride” numbers. If I was going to make them they had to be made from found trinkets, lost toys and records of course.
The 7″ vinyl makes a perfect base to embellish. First, I put them in the oven on a low heat so they go a bit soft. This makes them easier to shape.
This batch was made with netting, buttons and feathers and the occasional frog, rat or cat!
Available made to order or sometimes in my Etsy Shop

Blue Bow Dress.
Lucia wanted something stylish for a wedding.
Again, I used my basic pattern that I also used for this dress.
Hot!

Made to Order Luxury Jacket and Hat.
Kim works for the sustainability team at the Council. She wanted me to make her a striking stage outfit. We decided on a blue-purple colour palette. I think I got a little carried away with the beading. Hours and days later I stopped. She was very pleased with the outcome and had great comments from the crowd. Yay!

Made to Order Pimped-Up Suit.
I like guys and girls in suits. But sometimes they can be a little formal and plain.
I experimented with adding a some lines by stitching on the jacket and trousers. I also changed all the buttons to match the thread colour. Here is the outcome.
If you are bored of your old suit and would like to give it a second life, specify your desired colours and style and we will do the rest.

Luxury Eco Clothing.
The Dolly Dress was created from the same pattern I used for these dresses.
But with this one I choose more luxurious fabrics. I salvaged lots of off-cuts and end of roll fabric from a Brighton based dress maker and used silks and satins to create this piece.
Gorgeous Yasemin modelling again.
