The auction is on for The Little Blue..:)..HERE…the auction starts at 50$..SOO..go go go! and bid..;)
(I´m a little bit anoyed at the auction house, I mailed them these great photos and they haven´t used them..:(..It is a shame they just put the corset down on sort of a background..sigh..)
Girl, what you do is AMAZING!!! This has given me inspiration for so many things..
To all of you finding this on my blog..GO LOOK..:).. Miss G Designs
The little Blue
I love this little underbust corset..:).. And will have hard time parting with it. It will be put on auction at luaritz.cpm..as soon as it is up, I will link to it.
The golden skirt and the dress (which acctually also is a skirt..:P..) and corset made by me..Hope you like.
By the way, picture taken by Luise Bruen, a very talented woman with a camera. Can´t wait to work more with her..:).
Snow White
Two films..one story.
At first I couldn´t wait to see “Mirror, Mirror”, when it still only was a rumor
Made by Tarsem Singh (love his other movies) and with his japanese costume designer Eiko Ishioka..
I was like OMG OMG OMG..!!!!
And then “Snow White and the Huntsman” was announced with Kirsten Stewart as a lead..let´s just say..I´m not very fond of the vampire thing she did..and the books are..I´d rather not use that kind of language..:P
I was like..OH CRAP!!!
Some months ago pictures of set and costumes were laid out on IMDB from both movies, and even though “Mirror, Mirror” stil was gourges, very colourfull and eleborate, I was intrigued by the other one, and fell in love with the Queens black dress (which could just as well been taken from a couture fashion show)..
Jaw dropping!!!..(and it is not the only one)..costume designer Colleen Atwood.
I realle really like the costumes in this one..(not that “Mirror, Mirror”s arn´t wonderfull to..:)..) because I love the way they have used modern fabrics and merged it with historical inspired costumes and it WORKS!
And then the trailers came..One movie with a fighting girlish Snow White, all sweet and innocent..presumebly meant for kids..(which I will see..:D..)
And the other one, with a fighting older Snow White, all mean and wild..definitley not for kids..;)
I just love the dark twist on it, the dark fantasy. Cherlize Theron looks to be awsome as the evil queen, and Kirsten Stewart can act..;P
THIS ONE I CAN`T WAIT TO SEE!!!!!
So all you costume freaks out there..or fantasy freaks..og just freaks..GO AND SE BOTH OF THEM!!..:D
Le petit blu
(does anybody know how to write..little blue in french??)..I don´t know french, but this sounds better than..little blue.. Oh..or maybe..”Forget me not”..?!!..:)
Work in progress..light blue satin, underbust corset, with mocca lace and swarovski beads.
Romantic little thing..I´m in love. But it is not for me.
It will be set on an auction at Luaritz.com with a lot of other different things (not mine) for the benefit of “Women for influence” (danish: kvinder for indflydelse)..for african women. The auction will be in may I think.
As soon as it´s up, I will post a link.
/K
P.S. OMG updating twice in one week..I´m on fire..:P
It seems I am not the best person to do updates…I really would like to, but then something happens and my attention is somewhere else.
I think I am little bit like a..oooh look a butterfly…preeeeeety..;)
Yeah well, thats me. So many things I would like to do!!!!..
Ok then, I have made a resolution to my self, to update every monday (after seeing game of thrones..:)..)..
I will try, to keep it down to one sewing project at a time.
I still have to finish the gambeson for my friend, and he still have to finish the tattoo.
This week I´m making a corset for an auction, that will benefit women in Africa. (there will be pictures of the finished thing).
I also have an idea for an overbust corset, with “halterneck” and a heart shape cut out in the back..Inspired by a corset that I found here on tumblr.
And ofcourse I still want to make a corset tutorial..
/K
KOMA photos.
This is Julie. I had the basic idea for her costume from day one. She dances jazz ballet and her role was a dark nymf/elfin thing. So, the long chiffon sleeve idea was there from the start…:)..and I love the way she worked them, she loved them too.
It gave her an all together more etheral feel.
More KOMA photos.
My friend finally had time to edit the photos she took…:D…(such is life when you study fulltime..:P..)
This is Erik. (you can read more about his role/butoh dance type, further down the blog) I had a hard time trying figure out how his outfit should look like. He was the last one made. I went from covering him all up, to lots of chains to black rough lace..and ending with the bare minimum…:P.. But it worked well with his insect/spider like dance..(and him wearing a bare minumum is not that bad either..;)..)
From time to time, I think it would be great to be a part of the fashion “industry”. Show up at the shows, comment and being commented and being qouted. Walking in 6” Louboutins with a Dior bag over my arm (God I´d wish i could afford that stuff..:P..)..Knowing the right people, the whole shabang..or what ever you call it.
And then, I show up at some party or work for some name, or this time show up at a very astimed persons fashion show (in Denmark that is) and se how it all is. And I am happy for the choices I have made..:).
The shallow smiles and hugs aplenty, the oohs and darlings and kisses. And all the “poker” faces..that was funny. OMG and all the furs, foxes everywhere.
Oh, and, If you can not walk in extremely high heels, don´t buy them and don´t wear them, ´cause you either will walk like a top heavy elephant or wobble your way down like a duck to your seat. At least, learn to walk in them..:P
But there was also lots of great dressed people.
There was one girl (not one of the models, just a guest), very tall, sleek long black hair, tight jeans, a bare midriff black tank top, fringes from above the bust and down to mid thigh, and high heels that went to her ass.
Everybody went..”Uhhh Ahhh”..and the girls next to me, with admiration in their voices cooed..”She´s so spot on!!”
I must admit, she was stunning, but I must also add, that the fashion show, was held in an abandoned hall, once used by the Carlsberg breweries. It was -12 celcius outside and about +3 inside at the most.
I know she wanted to show her self off and get noticed, and yes she succeded, she held out through the entire show (hands down for that) but in the end she was more or less blue.
And she wasn´t the only one.
So I´d rather look like a fat polar bear, with layers and layers of clothing, than an icicle..;).
But that´s just me.
Tomorrow starts Copenhagen Fashion Week. And I have been so lucky to aquire tickets for two shows!!
This is gonna be awesome. I will feel like the Sex and the City girls..:P.
If I will be able to take photos, I will post them..and tell about my great experience.
The first show is to see the AW12 collection of Henrik Vibskov (click the link to see what he does), one of Denmarks very famous designers..His shows are always very interresting. His designs are not my favorite, but it will be hell of a show..:)
The other one is for R/H, which I don´t know, but just have googled..:P.. Not so much my taste, but still nice to see..:)
My burleque outfit..:D.
I almost did not finish, since the day before the event, there was a blackout in my building..o.O..I was in pure PANICK!! I did finish my friends corset though, before the blackout..:P
I worked the entire day up to the event, with my corset. And it ended up like this. A see through lace dress (with a bare back) and a underbust corset with a metal ring closure up front.
Burelsque party in copenhagen..Again..:D
This is my friend wearing an overbust corset I made for her.. She has always wanted one, and has never been able to get an overbust corset..Since she is a large busted lady..She wanted a simple one, she could wear to most things..
So I made one for her. It was a challenge. Haven´t worked with a large bust before in a corset. I like the result, and the next one will be even better..:D
Practise makes perfekt..;)
Worn for the Burlesque party last friday..:)
My new beautifull tattoo..:D.
I know this has nothing or almost nothing (since I´m sewing a gambeson as payment for it, and will be talking more about it here) to do with my blog..but I just needed to share with everyone..:P.
It is not finished. After 3 hours my body crumbled, and that night I had high fever and shivers. I am a little wee thing.
There is a tail, going acros my back, down my left hip and thigh and ending in a curve under my left buttock.
This was the first time, my good friend did this water colour type tattoo..I am guinnea pig..He used this word..”..Wing it”..before he started..o.O. But then again I gave him a carte blanche..:P.
The one on the left, is being just done with the session, the other is one and a half week later..
Hope you like it..I do..:)
