Back to work! after a relaxing and sunny weekend i'm gearing up for the @londoncraftweek event at @clothworkers_co hall in london on 10th may, organised by @cbsilversmiths it is always so inspiring to share the craft of silversmithing with visitors and guests, key questions which i always get asked are 'how long does that take to make?' 'if you make a mistake can you erase it/start again?' and 'where do you buy your silver from?' if you'd like the answers to these.. keep watching and i'll share some insight in my next posts!

#fallforcostume day 23: under!
today i present the 1860's cage crinoline i constructed for myself out of piano wire - the same cage i now wear under all my 1860's dresses! i studied numerous extant examples before i delved into this project, and i was very pleased with the outcome, when it was finally completed at the end of last year! --------- #ensemblesofthepast #cagecrinoline #hoopskirt #cage #pianowire #bridalhoop #fallforcostume @redthreaded #leather #wireframe #ballgownskirt #under #undergarments #construction #historicalclothing #historical #engineering #balance #notjustsewing #bespokepiece #custom #crafted #extant #original #reproduction

#fallforcostume day 27: sparkles!
i love sparkles… i love wearing them as jewelry, as accessories, and on fabric! here’s a 1950’s inspired wedding dress i created in 2017 made from bridal satin that had sparkles all over it! it’s hard to tell from the first photo, so i've added the second, but the fabric was even prettier close up than it is from a distance! ----------
