Hey guys! Our dear photographer Roberto posted his pics last week and The Seamstress of Rohan and I also went to our little special spot in the woods to take some more pics by ourselves before I moved to the UK. I'm leaving you some pics here but you know they're uploaded in my galleries as usual.

Yes, I wanted to be Lucrezia Borgia so bad! Notice the drinking cup...maybe poisoned?
This one is by Iris Wenskowski, Roberto's assistant, who is also learning from him.
Here you can see a bit more in detail the sleeves and everything. I'm very happy with this dress, more than I normally am! So yay, learning how to sew better stuff ^^
In other news, I'm great here in northern England. My flatmates are the loveliest and uni is awesome. I'm very busy with the literature subjects but I think I'll manage. Just ordered some fabrics here to take with me to Mallorca during the Spring break so I can sew a bit there. When I'm back, I'm taking the dresses I couldn't bring (because of the weight restrictions) the first time I came. So yay, everything is fine, but I won't be posting about sewing in a while!
I just found your blog, your costumes and photos are so inspiring! I love that you are recreating Pre-Raphaelite pictures! I am so jealous of all your dresses! I am learning to sew, and I want to spend my life swanning around in Victorian dresses!
ReplyDeleteHiya! Oh thank you, I'm so glad you like it :) The Pre-Raphaelites are a never ending source of inspiration to me (and to many others) so I hope I can do this for many years! Oh don't be jealous, I'm not a trained seamstress, you'll be able to make dresses like mine and better in little time if you practise :D
DeleteThis is sooo gorgeous! I might have written it before, but the sleeves' fabric is just perfect! I knew it would turn out well ;) And the first pic is breathtaking! It could easily be a movie poster!
ReplyDeleteOh thank you so much, very glad you like the result :) There are more pics in deviantart and flickr if you are interested xx
