I have been in super work mode!

Deadlines are fast approaching…

And I’m wearing Hello Kitty pyjamas!

The Bridal showpiece is currently being made. It will have a overall ivory feel, mixing similar hues together; including a deeper metallic champagne ivory accent lace to add some depth topped off with Swarovski crystals. The body is hand-dyed by myself after much fabric dye testing to achieve the desired shade.

I have enough tulle to wrap around the world at least 3 times and I will probably not be able to resist using copious amounts of it….

A long flowing train anyone?

The Lady Marionette Collection

Progress is good! English opulence and modern lines are combining together~ I made a new pattern for my suspender belt and have continued toiling for the collection as a whole including my basque, body and suspender belt, adding small details and refining the finigh to each garment – though I cannot wait to see it in the final fabric.

No more toiling please! :(

Two deadlines are fast approaching: One is on the 2nd April for the Deutsche Bank Awards and my second is on the 3rd April linked to my Bridal Showpiece. This week, I am making Lay Plans on Gerber Accumark of my Longline Corset Bra, the specialist industry software and the rest of the time will be spent hand-sewing the showpiece and finalising the submission for Deutsche Bank!

At least hand-sewing is therapeutic for me :)

I also just noticed one of my designs I whipped up as a special bespoke piece for Sonata Lingerie whilst I worked there last year is available to buy:
