I have been working on this ensemble for a client of mine in the studio, its made of hand dyed navy raw silk and is gathered into soft folds at the hem with a puffball finish.
I added an array of deconstructed shabby chicesque blooms on the asymmetrical shoulder which add a couture appeal.
*notice el matching baggo on the shelf to the left!* I love this innocent look.

This is the latest custom order that I have completed for a bride on etsy in the shop. I just love how my client wanted to pull the colours from her bridesmaids into the overall piece, introducing chocolate brown and forest green. To me this shows a little daring and a willingness to be an individual! I love that in people. I like to celebrate uniqueness and eccentricity.

For a long time now I have tried to look after my clients in the shop. Offering larger orders nicities such as discounts, little gifts etc to show my appreciation for their custom. Its an artists dream to be supported in such way and I always feel really blessed to have return customers. These are the people that continue to come back and order pieces from me, those that really subscribe to my aesthetic. I try to look after these people.
So I have launched a loyalty club in my shop to do just that. With many special offers available its nice to see those that support my work get something back in return. ;)
Pictured above is a cuff on its way to one such client, having spent over 200dollars with me in one order! I hope it makes her feel appreciated.

I have been busy lately in the studio with a steady stream of custom orders. The most recent one being this antiquated tattered underbust corset for an awesome client on etsy. My client is planning on rocking this with a pair of ruffled cotton bloomers! What a perfect client, I just love those that dare to be individual in their approach to personal adornment!
