Vicky's Dress

Vicky is a senior dancer from my region in NW England. She loves to dance and has many other hobbys too as well as being a busy veterinary nurse and a very clever lady to boot.



Fabrics red satin with overlay of glittered netting, white with mop sequin circles and gold swirl lamé





She wore it for the first time on Saturday. I wasn't there to take any pictures but hopefully she got some and will forward them onto me.

Chrissey's Dress

Chrissey contacted me some time ago to ask me to make her a dress. We tossed around a few ideas and came up with this design.


And here are the finished pictures. The light is causing a problem on the right of the pics. I will be getting some pictures from Chrissey and her mom when she wears her dress out..... I'll put them up, but for now here's my bad pics :o)


The dress is made from black satin and a fuschia pink with metallic strands. A white lace petticoat and white tutu. Embellished with lots of diamantes to give it that extra sparkle.





Hope the dress brings you luck Chrissey

Katie's Dress

This faux 5 panel dress has been made for Katie, a little girl in the USA. She wanted a blue dress and flowers.

So we looked through various fabrics and decided to use a white fabric with blue flowers, covered in a blue organza with sprinkles of silver glitter.

Other fabric used is a pink chiffon base with circular sequined design. The appliqué is done in silver diamond shape foil. All finished in pink and blue embroidery and pink satin flowers stuck on to give a 3D effect and white satin with silver glitter ruffles.


The lining and bloomers are in a crazy design hologram silver foil on pale blue jersey

and the package is finished off with a padded headband.

Lily's Dress

I made Lily's Dress in 2005 and never managed to get a picture of it. I saw it up for sale at a feis last w/e and grabbed a couple of pictures.



It's made in orange satin with tiny silver hologram sequins. The appliqué is in silver sewn sequin and turquoise holo square.

I made the design in an opened Lily shape to emulate the owners name, she is a very delicate looking child who also does ballet and is training with the Royal Ballet Co. She qualified for the Worlds at her first Oireachtas wearing the dress and it always looked lovely, with great stage presence.

Sarah's Dress

Sarah is a senior dancer from London. This is her 2nd costume from me....the other is the purple one for sale at the bottom of the right hand column. This was my first attempt at a 4 panelled dress.

We decided to 'upgrade her' hmmm I sound like Beyonce Knowles don't I? Yes, I am a hip n happening mum, and I know all the words, hahaha!

skirt under construction ^
bodice v

She had a design in mind, but we decided together that it wasn't going to work and she liked the design on one of Rhi's old costumes, so we took inspiration from that.

It's also a 2 piece, so Sarah can keep cool between rounds.


These were all the work in progress, am waiting for some finished pics from Sarah, as the one's I took were all at the wrong angle her legs were too white hahaha, she'll kill me for that!
The main red fabric is satin 'falling rain' from http://www.whitelodgefabric.com/falling_rain1.htm and an orange sequinned overlay http://www.whitelodgefabric.com/chiffon_sprayclover_sequin.htm with silver, and white appliqué. The back is finished off with a small loose shawl in the orange chiffon. Sarah's delighted with her new dress and wore it out at 2 feis last w/e..... yes 2 one in London the other in Birmingham. As soon as she gets the finished pics to me I'll post them.
