I debated for a long time whether I wanted to have these revealing pictures for this dress on my website.
But I like the pictures and the dress even more! :-)

So today I’m introducing my new Crochet Dress that (with something underneath ;-) ) is perfect for tango dancing.

As I continue to reorganize my home, I haven’t started any new projects this year and updates will probably slow down for a while.
But maybe there will also be one or two small craft works from the apartment to show ;-)

See you soon, yours,

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,

I wish you a happy new year!

The last year has completely thrown me off course!
When heart and mind don’t agree, drama is inevitable ;-)

So this year begins in the broken fragments of the life I have built over the last two decades…

So now it’s time to get up and reinvent myself!
Maybe that will also show up on this website ;-)

What hasn’t changed (so far): I’ve put together an overview of the projects that have already been completed, i.e. what I still want to show. A few of these items were already on this list last year ;-)

• 2016: Kya
• 2018: Flapper Dress
• 2021: Badass Tailcoat
• 2023: Sweat Kombi
• 2023: Lace Bolero
• 2023: Crochet Dress
• 2023: The Secret Chapter

There are two works in progress:

• a Crochet Crop Top (yes, still, it’s lying around….)
• a crocheted tango skirt

…and the ideas from the last few years have not been forgotten yet, but they will have to wait for now, as I will tackle my major apartment redesign project first:

• another Victorian bustle dress
• a less self-made, but mainly bought cosplay in progress (from Avatar – The Last Airbender)
• another one (from Star Wars) only as an idea so far ;-)
• and another crocheted tango dress

So here’s to an exciting new year with lots of big and small projects ;-)

Yours,

Just in time for the 1st Advent, I have a little kitschy decoration for you that is also ideal as a Christmas decoration, th Decorative Hearts.

I wish you all a wonderful Christmas time with continued beautiful snowy landscapes :-)

Yours,

Actually, a report from this year’s Anno 1900 Steampunk Convention in Luxembourg should follow here, including a new costume.
Instead of that, there is a small crochet work from 2021 to see, the Purple Spiderweb Top.

This small work was presented in a big way in another great shoot with Olaf Pinn .
Thanks for the great pictures :-)

Yours,

Ten years ago I was allowed to be part of the Machina Nostalgica, the first German steampunk exhibition in the Kreismuseum Prinzeßhof in Itzehoe!
I got to meet so many wonderful, creative and talented people and host my first opening weekend fashion show.
At this point a big thank you again to my great, beautiful models Raja, Jasmin, Josepha, Lea and Swenja, and of course also to the hairdresser Marlies and for the invisible but indispensable help in the background to my dear friend Sandra!

The small film contribution to the opening weekend can still be found at: Steampunk Exhibition Machina Nostalgica.

It was a wonderful time and I like to think back on it often :-)

Reminiscing… yours

And again crochet stuff, but a work from this year: The Victorian Mermaid Lace Shawl, which I made to match my great new boots :-)

My sewing projects are progressing slowly – I don’t have the right fabric and I’m running out of time until Anno 1900…

But the next big crochet project is already in the starting blocks ;-)

Let’s see what I have to show next…
Yours,

It’s hard to believe, but today I actually have something sewn to show and nothing crocheted ;-)

However, it is a quick & dirty work that was created in 2021, the Archer Vest with the matching Archer Wrist Warmers.

And no – I haven’t forgotten how to sew, it’s just all going a little slower than I’d like.
I hope I can make another update soon and show more :-)

Yours,

Again today I only have little stuff to present, while in the background I continue to work at a snail’s pace on my next major project.
So here it is, my sweet little Shrug in Beige.

See you soon!

Yours,

The work on my current project is progressing very slowly, there is a lack of time and energy – but I’m not giving up ;-)

Meanwhile, I still have a project from last year to present with pictures also from last year: The Camouflage Net Top!
As soon as spring comes, I’m looking forward to finally being able to wear this :-)

Yours,
