A lot of time has passed since my last Marie Antoinette post, but now I have some things to talk about. To be honest, there were a lot of things that I planned but that didn’t happen, but I’m not really sorry. I’m happy that everything turned out great in the end. Different but great! […]
Picture Credit: Amber Tree on Flickr A few weeks ago I was browsing on pinterest and I saw a painting in which I fell in love immediateley. It was love at first sight and I got a fuzzy feeling and I knew I had to recreate the dress. The painting is from the dutch painter […]
The edwardian era was a time of big changes – in society, industry and also fashion and it was always a time which I loved. As many of you know I live in vienna, a city which is known for all the beautiful buildings from around 1900. We don’t call this era edwardian here but […]
It’s been more than a year and I don’t know how time could fly so fast but I’m finally back with an update on my corsets. A few months ago I wasnât in the mood to start a new project so I looked through my ‘box of shame’ and found the corsets at the bottom […]

When I started historical costuming I was pretty fast at a point where I would have loved to get book recommendations because there are SO many out there and […]
It’s NOT been a while since my last post and this makes me happy because this means the raining I was complaining about in my last post has finally stopped. đToday I also don’t want to talk too much because I only want to show you my finished dress worn with my now decorated bonnet […]
Good morning or afternoon or evening everyone! Today I have a new little project for you, which was not planned at all but was a lot of fun to make. I’m still enjoying my free time after my master craftsman examination and my internship at Kunsthistorisches Museum Vienna. Since jobs in my field are pretty […]
It was again the time of the year where I pack my things and travel a few hours by train to visit my good friend Magdalena in Bad Aussee, one of the most beautiful cities in austria. It’s very very small compared to vienna but no matter where you look, you’ll see postcard kitsch and […]
