  • Meine Kostüme

    In diesem Teil meines Webs werde ich meine Kostüme inklusive des Herstellungsprozesses zeigen. Ich habe diesen Teil der Seite so aufgeteilt, als das ich die Kostüme in vier Kategorien aufgeteilt habe: Elizabethanisch, Viktorianisch, ‚Verschiedene‘ und ‚Andere‘ Kostüme. Dies habe ich getan, um eine bessere und logischere Aufteilung zu erhalten. Jedes Kostüm hat eine „Folgt mir!“ […]

    Real-Life Research

    You would probably be rather surprised how many things you can still find from Elizabethan times in your close environment if you just look for them; and sometimes you might stumble over interesting oddities. Churches and museums are great sources for such studies, as well as some movies and, of course, paintings, this is why […]

    Costumes I have made for other people Actually, I have made over 200 costumes for other people in the past years which would well fill a whole web and more. However, as this site is rather new, I’ve decided to show only those costumes here that I have made in the last year and will […]

Rainbow Portrait

Bodice

The bodice The bodice of the „Rainbow“ portrait gown is made up almost like fully boned, untabbed stays, especially because the neckline is almost immodestly deep. If you look carefully you can practically see the stitched channels for the boning between the embroidered flowers – or rather the straining of the material between those case […]
