I do sew, i mostly do costumes, and i am usually too busy to sew for myself, but i do sew more for humans than for furbutts. I went to design school. My dad at first was totally against it, but recently he told me he was glad that my fashion design degree went towards something. (That's his idea of a complement LOL)
I love vintage style stuff, so I mostly shop in thrift shops, IF I shop at all. I can't stand the mall. Overpriced stuff and everyone knows where you got it. I have a whole folder of designs I want to make, but I'm too busy making stuff for other people that I can never do MY stuff! LOL
anyway, here's two costumes I make. From the Sweeney Todd movie, Sweeney and Mrs Lovett. Oh I love corsets too, I make those as well. I love anything late Victorian. |
They look really, really great! You are very talented.
My youngest daughter buys almost all of her stuff in vintage stores or just thrift stores. She puts stuff together that would look just plain silly on me but somehow it looks great on her.
When we had her engagement party she showed up in a little hat with a veil and a vintage dress and managed to look adorable. I have NEVER been able to wear a hat. I look dumb in hats - wish I could. On Memorial Day she had on sailor shorts with a little top and high heeled shoes with an ankle straps and her hair was braided and wrapped around her head.
She would love your victorian corsets.
