Ruby red cashmere, fur, and lace addition to our museum collection. I confess…I tried her on and twirled! 🙂

In The Works…
After a long winter of client work, I can finally share the specialty stuff, repurposing extant pieces from our museum collection. First step is to assess condition and strengthen, if need be. I’m seeing an 1890s day suit out of this silk faille and rare (all) silk velvet!
Dreaming of Spring…
Dreaming of an Impressionist Spring, with dappled sunlight and miles of sheer cotton ruffles…how many days of winter left?
Souvenirs of Paris…
Our last Paris shopping trip included tickets to the amazing Toulouse-Lautrec exhibit at the Petit Palais, and we’ve had the 1890s on our mind ever since!
And We’re Back…
After a whirlwind week of driving through the UK, we’re happy to be home. This trip was more of a history tour rather than fashion trip but even so, we management to find some exquisite fabric. Stay tuned for more as we get things sorted out… 🙂
