A New Outfit: The Secret Chapter
Secret Chapter Wrist Warmers
These mini gloves belong to The Secret Chapter. They should give the impression that the blouse is long-sleeved with the jacket on and without the jacket they should be small, fine gloves to match the blouse. They serve this purpose quite well ;-)
The very simple pattern is selfmade. They are closed tightly to the wrist with a small snap button.

Secret Chapter Bag
This is the bag for The Secret Chapter – small enough to fit well, large enough for everything important ;-)
The pattern is actually a leather pattern from DieselpunkRo’s wonderful Etsy shop.
It was a real challenge to change this pattern for a purely fabric bag. Given this experiment, I’m still somewhat satisfied with the slightly messy result.
But I definitely have to make the pattern again out of leather ;-)

Making of …
For this crochet dress I followed the wonderful Blue Dress pattern from krinichka’s etsy shop as closely as possible (except for the color choice and the hem). The difficulty was that the crochet pattern was only available in Ukrainian. But these days you can get something like that translated quickly ;-)
I am very satisfied with the result :-)

A New Outfit: Badass Tailcoat with Long Gloves
The first new work that I want to show this year was already finished in 2021 and the shooting for it was in 2023, so it’s actually not new at all ;-)
It is about theBadass Tailcoat with the matching Badass Long Gloves.
Even though the shoot has a Star Wars theme, I didn’t want to classify the tailcoat under Cosplay & Nerdiges, but instead under Gothic & Gruftiges, because for me it is an all-rounder :-)
Olaf Pinn took the wonderfully space-y images in a very fun shoot. Thank you very much for that :-)
It will still be some time before you can see anything really new from me…I’m still in the process of rearranging my life and getting back on my feet.
In the meantime there will still be one or two posts!
Yours,
