Image consultant specializing in one-of-a-kind custom costume designs, tailor/seamstress (30 years), photographer, online sales, shipping, booth vending, buyer, fittings, online marketing and networking, alterations, and re-construction of special garments. Most custom garments represent glam, dance, yoga, alternative, steampunk, elf/tribal, anime, futuristic Edwardian, and Mad Max genres. All types of fabrics used including faux fur, spandex, wool, real fur, upholstery, denim, feathers, sequins & silk.

My special interests include glam, burning man, disco dance, pimpin' faux fur coats, Edwardian, stretch velvet and lycra cat/ jumpsuits, bright colors, non-traditional fabrics sewn into victorian styles, feathers, sequins, top hats, and anything interesting and unusual. I like to have a little artistic license and a budget to work within before working with a client with realistic expectations.

I like funky fabrics of all sorts and donations of costumes or fun pieces to trip out. Consider handing it to me before sending it to the thrift if it is WAY cool:). I'd love a really awesome 4-5 cone heavy duty table serger:)
