Default My `Old Fashion´

Besides drawing portraits is sewing clothing an costumes my favourite hobby.

Here are some examples:



corset 19th century, blue silk




Regency gown, green silk




dress with bustle, late 19th century




50s dress, worn over a petticoat I did also made




the same dress, it´s a costume from the movie `Pleasantville´, it is not a black and white photography, it´s all make up

That's great, is it hard to sew Corsets, I always imagine it would be. It must be great to be able to create one with your exact measurements. It's hard finding some that fits perfectly.

Thank you
Yes, if you´ve got a pattern for it, you have always to make some modifications for perfect fitting.

I always liked the look of corsets on ladies but can imagine they must be uncomfortable. Very beautifully designed though. Great job!

That blue silk corset is superb! You have to be very neat-handed

I like the bustle dress!

Nice to see that I'm not the only designer here! (I make more jewelry and accessories)
