Lelahel's diary

My last and new 7 outfits you saw here are now available for sale !
3 of them are for auction on ebay here
The 4 other outfits have fixed price and are on forums, here on Den of Angels (you have to have a marketplace access to see the topic) and here on Materiel Celeste (french forum). I hope you will like them and you will buy all of the dresses very quickly lol
And here is the last dress i made, yesterday. I wanted to make an outfit with asian and regency period inspiration !

Now that i master (lol) regency dress pattern, i put on outfit my personnality and my universe. For this one, i can't ignore that a little bit of tim burton's movie was on my fingers when i chose the fabrics and the shape of the collar... I like it this way.

I will put some on the last outfits i made for sale at the end of the week, but i still don't know if i'll use ebay, forums only, and if i will sell all of them or just two or three... I would like to have news about an event in switzerland i would like to attend, to know if i should keep some stocks or not. I hope i am going to hear from it soon...

Thursday, the death of the fashion designer Mr McQueen has been announced on medias. I've been shocked : the brand Alexander McQueen is one of my favourite and Mr Lee McQueen (the funder and the stylist) was the designer i felt the closest from me. His creations and world was sometimes dark, very gothic in my point of view. I admired his carreer a lot, he was free to do whatever he wanted to do with his clothes, and never accepted to compromise about his art. I have been really - and i still am - sad about this tragedy. He was only 40, and so talented... Fashion will miss you, Mr McQueen.

And a quick pic of the pin up outfit in brown. It was a first test, i think now i can try to make the outfit in black...

I finnished another regency dress (yes this is my main job those days) ! With a polka fabric, in black and white ^^

I like polka fabric, it definitely makes me think of pin ups and the 60s !
And i had one other polka fabric, in white and brown, it helped to find a new motivation for a new pattern !

I just had time today to sew the blouse and the under corset. I made a try with the leather i bought maybe one month ago. And i liiike working with leather a lot. This is a good quality one and it's so chic... I have to make a skirt tomorrow, and this outfit will definitely look "pinup like" ! lol
That is great to find motivation to make something unexpected and new, i have tons of ideas but when i arrive on my fabrics cabinet, i never find anythin satisfying... I got around 200 different fabrics now but sometimes, any of them speak to my muse and my mind ^^

i made a new face up (again) on my bera. Well for now i am satisfied with it, i don't plan to make a new try soon ^^ Every time i make up this doll, at the very end i got problems with the lips when i put the gloss... after 3 tests, her lips finally looked "correct", i was nearly on a nevous breakdown lol So here she is ! I am going to make her a regency dress, just for her. Everytime i make an outfit for Lelahel, i finally decide to sell it. And i have almost nothing to dress her now -_- I should go to the paris fashion doll festival in march and i want her to look great in case i would decide to take her with me !


Now that she has her "definitive" face up, i have to look for the eyes (i can't find the exact color that i want except amongst expensive urethane eyes) and a new wig - which is also a very big deal with her pretty unusual head size... Hopefully she has the perfect face for my character !

I took pic of the green outfit i finnished yesterday, with natural light, way better ^^

here are two new dresses i made : one last week and one today (that's why the pic is not good quality, i just finnished it now and no light enough for my camera). I still enjoy working on the super gem body and now i should work on a pattern for a corset on this size too ^^


I tried a new shape for sleeves on this one, and i like it. What you think ?
And thanks to the people who watched my ebay stuffs, i should put things on sale on forums and for auction in two weeks ^^
