The background print is produced from a photograph I took of the sea surrounding Venice, the sunlight was just reflecting off the sea which created the light areas of print. Around Venice, there was so much rust and decay I felt I wanted to produce a piece that reflected the metal states. It seemed natural to add the light reflection back to a piece so I added a foil and silver thread however the burnished copper represents the rust that starts to form after being exposed to the elements for a period of time
This blog is for anyone with a passion for glamorous gowns, sumptuous textiles, sublime embellishments and of course for vintage dresses. My blog also gives an insight into the design processes I use in the dressmaking field, the leatherwork I create and also the surface pattern’s I design to produce truly unique garments and accessories. Should you wish to discuss or purchase any of my work, please do not hesitate to be in touch. Love from The Vintage Dressmaker xx
