June with cherry red sash

Here are some photos of the lovely June with a cherry red sash. The dress is photographed with a different petticoat. I will take some photos in a couple of days showing the difference between and 2 layer and a 3 layer petticoat. These photos show the 2 different ways that the sash can be worn.

New designs!

I've had quite a few emails recently asking for sketches of the new design. So, i decided to upload them here!

Lyndsey - You can see the first version of Lyndsey a few posts below. The final version will have a slightly different skirt on it, as from now on all Lizzie Jayne designs come with a full circle skirt!

Grace - This design is to be confirmed. It's essentially a strapless version of Lyndsey, but i need to ensure that i'm happy with the hold in the bodice before I confirm this design. So bear with me if you're interested in this design!

Helen - This dress is very similar to June, but with a lace overlay on the top part of the bodice, coming down in a V shape at the back.

All of these designs come with the option of either a dupion silk sash, or a corsage detail. Photos of the corsage options will be coming soon! As always, you get to pick the colour of the sash, corsage and petticoat!

Photos of dress making

For a strange few minutes there i had to navigate around blogger all in Czech, what's all that about? A quick google later and we're back in my native tongues, phew!

So, back to the point. I have some new photos of dress making. This is the first time i've made the June style in silk satin and it's absolutely gorgeous. The fabric is so luxurious and suits the style so well. I've also changed the style of the skirt and from now on all Lizzie Jayne dresses will have full circle skirts! Yay! I've been avoiding it up until now to avoid the seams down the side of the skirt, but the seams fall into the skirt and it will be so fun to twirl in!

So, here's the photos! It isn't finished yet, the hem needs sewing and it obviously needs those finally touches of a (cherry red!) sash and 3 layer petticoat. Then this dress gets to whizz over in a box to the States for a lovely bride. I can't wait to see the photos!

Yay for labels!

After a long wait, i finally have labels for my dresses! Very exciting, i love polka dots and these are perfect x

In other news... I'm looking to move away from making the petticoats for my dresses and i'm hoping to work with a British petticoat designer. This will mean i can offer 2 different sizes of petticoat in a range of colours. If all goes well, i'll be adding a lovely range of colours to my website soon, with some really exciting possibilities for my brides. Hopefully it will provide a wider choice, without compromising in quality. I'll keep you all updated with how this progresses.

Photos of Lyndsey

I'm finally back after spending a wonderful 2 weeks walking in the Highlands. If any of you are into walking, i thoroughly recommend the West Highland Way. 95 miles of glorious Scottish scenery and lovely people.

Back to the dresses..... the first version of Lyndsey is finished! The final design for this dress is going to be slightly different to this version, but it will have the same neckline, just slightly different straps. The first photo is of the dress as ready for the bride, in the second photo i've put a ribbon and corsage in it. The dress will be available with either a corsage or a sash.

I hope you all enjoy....
