Was this only three days ago? Today I'm back in my studio, covered with threads and writing up a post on how I researched this dress from an antique in my collection. . . #lilyabsinthestyle #historicaldressdesigner #originalsources #LAartist #topangaartist #1880sfashion #antiquehat #selfdrafted #memade #victorianoldwest #victorianstyle #bustlegown #bustle #pleatastic #libertyoflondon #citrusorchard #orangeblossom (at Rancho Camulos Museum) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQNC8_eFKTn/?utm_medium=tumblr

I’m a lucky girl, I found this Chullo -Andean style of knitted hat with ear flaps in an antique shop in Penzance (god knows what it was doing there all the way from South America!!!). You can see the inside of the hat is so neatly done even though there are 15 different colours on this hat. It’s knitted in at lease 11 or 12 stitches per inch. I’m having a good study of this hat. Maybe I can copy this design and write the pattern out. Depending on who has the patience to knit it 😅. Special thanks to my boyfriend Vasco for buying it for me. He doesn’t really the joy I get from just owning one of these without going to South America to buy one 😘😅😍😘. ... ... #peruvian #chullo #andean #wool #antiquehat #chillian #knitstagram #knitting #instaknit #knittersofinstagram #knitspiration #lovetoknit #loveyarn #colourful #challengeyourself

Playing with some millinery with this antique hat for the French 1898 suit. Brown is *not* my color, so this incredible extant ribbon in black and rose will help! It's a bit dramatic...but so am I and there we are 😆 . . #brown #antiquehat #birdwing #extantribbon #inthestudio #lilyabsinthe #1898 #latevictorian #1890sfashion #1890s #velvet #velvethat #frosting #tallhat #toque #victorianmillinery #millinery #onmyworktable #LAartist #topangaartist #Victorian #belleepoque #labelleepoque #museumhat (at Lily Absinthe Gowns & Corsetry) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZDP3x7vvLU/?utm_medium=tumblr
