1920's Flapper Dress Original


This is based on a remarkable dress I found that was covered in rhinestones and sequins and is an original 1920's dress! This one is not as heavy as the original I am sure but just as lovely in gold and black! A can't miss for dancing and more!

Golden Spider Webs & Josephine



Today I was inspired by who knows what :) I went a little crazy and created an outfit for Josephine Baker and of course called it "The Josephine Baker". She was definitely a well-known personality of the 20's and mostly for her scantily clad shows. This outfit is masks and feathers and most parts are safely covered. It is a lot of fun as you can see.


The next outfit as usual started out completely different but it is a lovely gold and black design that reminds me of a spider web so it is called "The Golden Spider Web." It can be worn is many different ways from casual to night time dancing.

The New Zeigfeld Follies Collection - A Rose Is A Rose



One of my favorite inspirations is the costumes from the Zeigfeld Follies which were quite popular from the late 1800's to the early 1930's. A lot of actresses began with the follies. This dress is all roses and comes with a red velvet swing that you can swing and dance in at the same time. There is a story of the death of Stanford White, an architect in the 1910's and his involvement with a Floradora Girl. It was said he kept a red velvet swing in his apartment and like to watch his "girlfriends" swing on the swing. He was murdered by a jealous lover. Anyway, this dress is a first in my Zeigfeld Collection which will represent unique and original clothes that will be fun to wear!

Don't Let's Ask For The Moon - We Have The Stars




The title is from one of my favorite Bette Davis movies, "Now Voyager." They never got married in the movie but tonight I was working on this dress and this line kept passing through my mind. This is a wedding dress or even a party dress called "The Moon & The Stars." It is silvery, smokey gray and white with a a full headdress and a silver moon cap. The material was hand-done and detailed. It includes a skirt, a flexi skirt, pants, a shirt and of course, the lovely headdress. What person would not feel beautiful in this dress and surely the love of her life would want to give her... "The Moon & The Stars."
