As some of you may know, I'm generally engaged to somebody or other. And as you may also know, this means I have a wedding dress in reserve. (I'm being flippant because it's all very fraught and serious and full of heartbreak and happiness, really.) Anyway, the dress is a stunner and was made by Mary Adams. I'm ashamed to admit that I totally missed the book she did with Amy Sedaris (whose whimsical frocks she makes) last fall, The Party Dress. I have ordered it. I doubt I can sew anything as gorgeous as all that, but even if it's just to learn more about this fascinating, indomitable lady and her story it'll be money well spent.
Very interesting points. Thanks!

I just looked at her website and apparently my dream of being a spinster in the 19th century getting a new frock/makeover at a dressmaker's isn't really dead? My day is made!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!
ReplyDelete@Anon Her gowns are truly works of art!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I would say "Flirty" #5 is closest in shape to my dress...
ReplyDeleteHopefully it's still in good shape. There's only so much Miss Havisham that ought to be featured.
ReplyDeleteI have discovered your blog today and I love it!! You make very beautiful things and your tutorials are very good. I will add your blog to my list. Congratulations for your works!!
ReplyDeleteThis is a smart blog. I mean it. You have so much knowledge about this issue, and so much passion. You also know how to make people rally behind it, obviously from the responses. Youve got a design here thats not too flashy, but makes a statement as big as what youre saying. Great job, indeed.
