From movies to history we love reproductions. Premiere corsetier to Jess W. and Cin City Burlesque, I wanted to do that. as well as Cin City Burlesque.
I remember evenings, sitting with my mom and watching re-runs of The Carol Burnette Show. For the most part, this was always just something my brother and I had to endure, but one night the skit “Went with the Wind” showed. When Carol came down those stairs with a curtain rod strung across her shoulders and a valance rolled into a hat, it sparked something in me. I wanted to have the creative free

Yesterday I played with the viral . I made a few modifications, but it’s still 10 bandanas.
Honestly, I’m not wild about it. Maybe with some fine silk scarves or linens I might change my mind. I also think I would handle the construction differently. But it was a fun experiment.
What are you trying this week?

✨ I did a thing! ✨
The custom-inspired tiered patchwork skirt listing is live.
This is for the folks who love the big swishy patchwork skirts, but want a little say in the chaos.
You pick your main color, then leave me notes with colors, themes, genres, or vibes you love, plus anything you very much do *not* want near your skirt.
Examples are absolutely welcome:
“spooky purples, fairy forest, cats, but please no orange”
“steampunk sunset pirate queen, but no Christmas fabrics”
“jewel tones, dramatic, slightly unhinged, surprise me”
Then I go into the fabric stash, listen to the little goblin voice, and build your skirt from there.
A little custom.
A little mystery.
A whole lot of swish.
Made to order with a 2–4 week turnaround before shipping.
Find it here:

So now I need to know, what would your skirt vibe be? Spooky fairy? Pirate sunset? Cottagecore goblin? Full chaos?
