Marchesa Luisa Casati, 1919by A. De Meyer
‘Luisa was an italian heiress who lived in an opulent and splendorous life. Her evening strolls made her quite scandalous because she was naked beneath her furs, walking around with her cheetahs on diamond studded leads. And, she gets stranger: she used to have dinner with mannequins. It’s believed that some of those contained ashes from past lovers.’ (via Mademoiselle M)

Still fucking got it.

I got my hours cut again so I decided to see if my rusty skills could still produce a dress. My favorite part ended up being the sky blue zipper. I’m definitely gonna make a braided belt out of the turquoise leather I have lying around. It’ll make everything else pop, bro.

Also contemplating knitted/crocheted straps. Out of a heavy cotton thread. I’ve got some dye lying around I wanna use up…
