Waterfall Skirt

I love feminine ruffles and asymmetric
lines. The high waist is slimming and
it looks very good on many body types.

Lolita Swirl Front Blouse

I like blouses that go to the elbow.
Not all women like to show their upper
arms! Linda's curve front goes wonderfully
with this blouse.

Captain's Jacket

In the search for a new military style
jacket, Linda started drawing freestyle,
as she does, and came up with a simple, but strong jacket. The final picture just
doesn't capture how awesome the cuffs are!

Bandolier Vest

In one week I got inspiration from three different movies - Gypsy, Empire Strikes Back and a Clint Eastwood flick. In all of these movies, I saw something draped over one arm and thought it might be cool to do a vest with one arm.

Gothic Victorian Fishtail Skirt

I have been working on this skirt for the past 5 months and finally found someone to make it correctly. I was looking to make a more elegant Victorian style skirt and came up with a skirt that bustles up on the top layer to give it a nice drape in the front. This skirt will be available in both cotton and satin in February.

Victorian Single Bustle Skirt

This skirt was inspired by the Victorian "Natural Form" period between 1875-1882. We wanted a look from a different portion of the VIctorian era since it spanned over so many years and so many changes in style (ie: Civil War style full skirts to the bustle skirt). The skirt to the right was made as a special commission. The link will show the three versions of this skirt made for the same customer. The fabrics are black satin, silk duponi and taffeta.

Medieval Brocade Wedding Dress

This authentic Medieval Wedding dress was made by special request. The white skirt portion was made from white satin jacquard with a shimmering overlay of super soft sheer tulle. The bodice (closeup here) was made from gold embroidered brocade, hand-sewn pearls, gold tulle ruffled trim, embroidered trim and handmade cameo. The sleeves were lined with the shimmering tulle and tied off with gold ribbon. The back of the bodice was laced with gold cording. The bridal veil (seen here) was made from 4 feet of shimmering tulle and attached to a circlet made of braided gold cording, ribbon and hand-sewn pearls.

Lolita Fancy Corset Tail Blouse

I have had many requests about having a short sleeve top, so I have been racking my brains for something that would be just a bit different and have a cute sleeve. The neckline is high ruffles with a ruffled front panel. The sleeve is a 'leg o'mutton' style puff top with a wide cuff and the back comes down into a rounded tail with corsetted back. The top is made of cotton/spandex broadcloth.

Engarde Elegant Aristocrat Outfit

This shirt was also inspired by vintage dandy style clothing, but with a Japanese Punk flair. The coat would be made of black velvet with brocade trim. The coat could be worn short (to the waist) or long as there are tabs that hold the bottom of the coat on. The lace up shirt would be made of silk or satin with embroidered trim. The pants could be made of satin or light-weight velvet.
