We are hard at work on another creation that we will be unveiling very soon so stay tuned… 🙂

And Something New In The Works…

Ball Gown Status1

Ivory, champagne, and blush silks with reels of silk ribbon on organza pleating…another Lily Absinthe design in the works. <3

In Design…

And just in time for Winter Balls and other Events…Silk Lampas. It’s French and fabulous from original Schumacher looms, the Brussels Point De Gaze figured piece is from Paris as well.  This will be one of the gown styles that will be made-to-order from Lily Absinthe (in a few choices of silks and variations, also a bridal version) but I wanted one last pretty gown for myself before things pick up <3
