A beautiful luxury costume for your 18 inch doll, this features hand sewing, hand embroidery and a real hat made in the traditional way.
This OOAK item will never be duplicated, though I may make similar items. I designed this pattern myself.
I made this from upcycled vintage soft black velour; I think upcycling and recycling is very important, and I try to show this with my work. The bodice is lined in black cotton.
It features buying fine lace; the spiderweb on the bodice glows in the dark, and has a tiny spider I embroidered. I chose the hem and wrist lace based on how it resembles a spiderweb. The skirt has a stiffened hem so it stands out; there is no skirt fluffing undergarment. The small seams are hand finished and covered with a lace hem tape. All lace was hand sewn. The buttons and button holes were sewn by hand, not machine, and reinforced. The hat features a traditional wired buckram brim that can be shaped if you wish. The hat has been stitched to turn the point down a bit; I can remove this stitching if you prefer a straight pointy hat crown. The hat is lined in the same stretchy Velour, so it stays on the head nicely if you pull it down, so there is no ribbon or chin strap, but I can add one if you wish.
This is intended for mature doll collectors age 12 and up. Spot clean or carefully hand wash in cold water and do not wring. Mine is a smoke free home, and though I do have 2 cats, I carefully protect what I make from cat hair.
