Svelte Et Al

Svelte Et Al

The thought behind this collection is that some collectors love gowns, and some prefer cocktail dresses.  I decided to play with the idea of using the same fabric to make a version of each.  In some cases, I only ended making either the gown, or the dress because sometimes that's just the way the fabric speaks to me.  This collection also introduces my new pattern, Svelte, which I will be showcasing this year in a variety of fabrications, cleavage, and embellishment.  The primary fit is to the medium/small busted girls --FR2, BFMC, but the versions with less cleavage also fit well on Poppy and Nu.Face bodies. Because my life is extremely chaotic right now, since my Dad moved in, I am not taking pre-orders on Svelte dresses.  However, I will make a list of requests (email me the fabric and cleavage preference), and as time permits I will make up dresses from the list and notify you of availability, and allowing 24 hours notice before posting the fashions on the blog for general purchase.  (Please note, if you click on the photo it will show you a larger version)

Blue Monet Bustier Gown  OOAK

Gorgeous shimmery shades of blue with metallic threads woven thru, this two-piece gown features deep blue beading on the bodice, and is fully-lined with snap back closure.  Fit to FR2, it is actually shown on BOD and BFMC dolls.  The BOD body creates a little more va-va-voom for the bustier.  Skirt length will only work for BFMC if a round-based stand is used, as in the photo.  

SOLD $65 plus shipping (and 9% sales tax for California residents)

Svelte Blue Monet

Fit specifically to the new Nu.Face body, this Svelte dress is embellished with beads on the bodice, is fully-lined with snap back closure

SOLD $50 plus shipping (and 9% sales tax for California residents)

Entwined

Entwined in beautiful pink ribbon trim, this black silk dupioni two-piece bustier gown is fit to the FR2 body, although it will fit other medium/small busted dolls.  Skirt length is the same as Blue Monet, and if used on BFMC body will need a base/stand to display properly.  Fully lined, snap back closure.
HOLD $60 plus shipping (and 9% sales tax for California residents)

Molten Gold Bustier OOAK

Incredibly beautiful deep gold brocade needs no embellishment.  Two-piece bustier gown is fully-lined with snap back closure.  Fit to the FR2 body, same as the other bustier gowns.  This fabric is quite delicate, and must be handled with care so that is does not snag.
SOLD $55 plus shipping (and 9% sales tax for California residents)

Svelte Blue Splash

Lovely navy blue fabric with splashes of shimmery silver blue make this Svelte dress a show stopper.   Shown with deep cleavage, and fit to the FR2 body, this dress also works for most medium/small busted bodies.  Fully-lined, snap back closure.
SOLD (will have more made at some point) $45 plus shipping (and 9% sales tax for California residents)

Svelte Golden Shimmer

This ultra limited gold fabric shimmers beautifully in the light.  Shown with more modest cleavage, this dress was fit to the FR2 body, but as you can see, looks amazing on BFMC, as well as Poppy.
$45 plus shipping (and 9% sales tax for California residents)

Many more Svelte dresses to come!  As always, to check availability, email me at: Elisa@PetraElise.com (Please include state/country for postage and tax if applicable)

Blush Collection

Blush Collection

At the moment, the Blush Collection consists of just two OOAK fashions, but I expect to add a few more pieces.  Both fashions fit the medium/smaller busted girls, from the FR2, Poppy to BFMC, although they were specifically fit to the FR2.  Each fashion was made with attention to detail, and with hand sewn elements.  (Please note, if you click on the photo it will show you a larger version)

Blush Waterfall

OOAK hand draped silk gauze top with floral lace applique, beading and tiny ribbon bows fall gracefully over a matching floral lace skirt.  Fully lined (top self-lined with gauze, skirt with lining fabric) with snap back closure.
SOLD $95 plus shipping (9% Sales Tax for California Residents)

Blush Ralph and Russo

OOAK Ralph and Russo inspired silk gauze and lace dress. As soon as I saw this fashion, I knew I had to make a version for our diminutive divas.  Fully-lined, attached silk ribbon belt and snap back closure.
SOLD $95 plus shipping (9% Sales Tax for California Residents)

Please email me at: Elisa@PetraElise.com for availability of these fashions.  Please include State or Country for postage amount (and sales tax if applicable)

Ageless Collection

Ageless

Vintage inspired, beaded lace is the crowning element of this mini-collection.  Each piece is OOAK, and hand appliqued, incorporating hours of work in stunning attention to detail.  Fashions are of silk dupioni, fully-lined with snap back closures.  I expect to add a few more pieces to this collection in the months ahead.  (Please note, if you click on the photo it will show you a larger version)

  Ageless Chic

Cleavage down to there, this fabulous cocktail dress fits the larger busted FR girls

SOLD $60 plus shipping (9% Sales Tax for California Residents)

 

Ageless In Ivory

Poppy is utterly opulent in this regal gown featuring silk tulle ruching, in addition to the hand appliqued lace, beading and bow accent.  Fits Poppy only.

SOLD $125 plus shipping (9% Sales Tax for California Residents)

 Ageless In Blue

Demure and incredibly elegant, Poppy is ready for the evening in this stunning gown.  The lace has been meticulously shaped and applied to the base gown and then finished with blue silk accents.  

Fits Poppy only.

SOLD $125 plus shipping (9% Sales Tax for California Residents) 

Please email me at: Elisa@PetraElise for availability of these OOAK fashions.  Include your state/country for postage amount, and tax if applicable.

Happy Belated New Year!

It's been a crazy time in my life since early December, when I found out that my elderly father had been abandoned by his "girlfriend/wife" and was alone at his home even though he has advanced dementia.  I had to travel up to his town to get him, which involved a 5 day stay in the ICU for him after he went missing and had a heart attack and fell in a stream during a cold rainstorm.  Since then, he has been living in our home, and requires care 24/7 as he has not one, but two forms of dementia both of which are in the later stages. 

In addition to dealing with his mental and physical health issues (he has advanced prostate cancer as well as a major heart condition) I have also been coping with numerous legal matters as a result of attempted elder financial abuse, and accusations of domestic violence against him.  It's all kept me incredibly busy, especially since my husband has been out of town a LOT with some amazing gig opportunities that came up this month.  But, I have managed to sneak in a bit of sewing time!!

I have a few clients who are interested in suits, and I will be following up with you all within the next few weeks to see if you are still wanting to proceed with those orders.  Because of all the chaos in my life, and the weeks and weeks I spent doing suits, I needed a bit of a creative break from them, hence the continued delay on the remaining suit requests.  I was able to get my hands on some incredible beaded laces and evening fabrics back in November, so have been exploring these pieces and will be unveiling a collection of cocktail and evening fashions soon.  Many pieces are already done, except for a few finishing touches.  I'm enjoying this range of fashions so much, that I keep starting a new one, and haven't yet gotten ready to photograph and present the collection, so as soon as I can tear myself away from the fun of creation, I'll get busy with taking those pictures.

Here is a teaser shot from one of the gowns  --
