My Historical Costumes – Portfolio

This is a selection of my historical costumes that I’ve made over the last few years. Click on links below the images for the detailed posts about my historical costumes.

My current main focus in historical sewing is the Edwardian era: particularly historically accurate early Edwardian corsets, underwear and tailored garments, historical hand-embroidery and how to achieve the extreme early Edwardian silhouette.
