With years of fascination of the craft of dressmaking,
I was pleased to help Janet realize that costumes can look true to the era AND be comfortable!!
Can you believe this Ladies traveling suit is tailored, boned and custom fitted?
Created of a lustrous Silk Wool blend, this burgundy suit is fully lined in silk and perfectly breathable and comfortable!
The wide brimmed hat is not quite a Merry Widow style, but needs to shield the sun!
The hat belonged to Janet, and was refreshed by Celina Peterson of
The hat looks F a a b ulous ! !
Of course studio images are not perfect, but some details need to be featured.The sweeping skirt features an adjustable waistband and box pleats at the waist and for comfort.The fit to flair style is accented by custom made flat roses and ruffle trim. Very typical of the period.
A closer look at the skirt hem detail.
I couldn't' resist making a fascinator of roses and feathers for Janet. This is a broach style, can be pinned onto a hat as well.
