A day in the sun




White lace trim and baby-blue ribbon decorate this little french sun hat.
Our dear thanks to Valleyviolet, for the gorgeous photographs of her beautiful Enchanted Doll Alice in her new hat - a lovely way to retain her porcelain youth and rosy complexion!

Both dolls wear Orchid's Designs

Winter a-wandering


For a more fantasy inspired vibe, the lovely Iưunn poses as a wandering lass, ready to take to the skies in search of new horizons. The thrill of adventure and the urging call of the wild take hold of her heart in this Orchid's Design costume ensemble, "The Little Adventuress".


A costume ensemble demands different attention to a Haute Couture piece.... the believability of the character to be portrayed must be taken into account... in this case tiny tears, visible stitching and patches were added to create the illusion of a weary and worn traveler.


Lace Harvest

Alice poses like a tiny vision in her "Lace Harvest" frock. Layers of soft tulle with delicate lace overlay.


A closer glimpse at the delicate lace and trim of the full skirt.


 
Our dear thanks to ValleyViolet for the incredibly beautiful photographs of her doll modeling our creation.

Lace Harvest Frock


A barely tangible vision of pale demeanor and soft innocence. 

Lace overlays a dusky pink bodice, atop a full tulle skirt. Ribbon to cinch a delicate waist.

This pretty frock fastens as a  wrap-style dress, perfect for either Enchanted Dolls or dolls of a similar size.

Decadence and Decay

This week I was most delighted to be granted permission to showcase one of our little ensembles (The Unseelie Queen) worn by Miss LK's exquisite doll, Fiori.




This entrancing beauty brings to life a new side of this costume. One of a fearsome wrath and unwavering regality. It is very special to glimpse these new personalities manifest with the individual dolls who then wear these costumes.

Thankyou to Miss LK and her stunning model Fiori!



Her immaculate photography makes me realise how ordinary my photographs look in comparison... hmmm, I will need to make an investment of a high quality camera one of these days. It really highlights the difference good tools and technology will make in representing your work and sharing it with others. I know the pieces are beautiful in real life, but it can be hard to capture their delicacy and individual intricacies digitally!

Smoke and Whispers and Porcelain Dreams


It is nice to see when our little designs go out into the world, and are being appreciated in their new homes.
This dreamy angel is frolicking in her new "Orchid's Design" ensemble, Smoke and Whispers


Thank you to Autumnlyte/TillyMoon for the gracious peek at her new beauty.
