my favourite jacket - update

I love it, still.
Added some vintage metal buttons and findings of all kinds.

long time, no see...

As you might have noticed, t's been a while since I last posted ...

A lot's been changing: I'm back to university, moved to Essen (horrible city btw.) and finally I also have internet again!

Also, there's something I wanted to let you know:
Since I went back to university, most of my time is being consumed by homework, studying and so on. That's why ParaNoire Design's shop will be in "standby-mode" from October 2009 until further notice.

I'll still accept orders of in-stock items (please pay attention to the article descriptions for further information), but unfortunately I'll have to cut back on my custom orders because my studies are top-priority and very time-consuming. They will only be accepted in limited quantities - please mail me ( info at paranoire-design.com ) if you're interested in an item that's not currently available!

I deeply appreciate your understanding and hope to be able to upload new items soon!

All the best,
Eva

ADRIENNE II - Steampunk Variation

This is a cute steampunk-ensemble that I came up with. The skirt is a variation of the forementioned ADRIENNE pattern, the KAMELIA cape is a completely new design. I myself LOVE the tartan lining!

ADRIENNE - dramatic trained skirt

A great skirt design for the more dramatic purposes (evening wear, costuming or even a wedding)! Lots of Belle Epoque inspirations are knit together to create this garment: high waist, floor length, a train and the rustling sound of luxurious Taffeta fabric.

size 36 (pictured) is currently for sale
any other sizes, colors, fabrics upon request

Bedsheet Upcycling

In order to survive the current heatwave, I made this cute dress for myself using old bedsheets and some ivory satin leftovers for the piping.

I'd really love to take a ride in the boat behind me, too :)

be careful what you wish for...

I might as well do what I'm told. AURELIE - a rather unusual color combination was asked for and I'm happy to please my customers.

I may accept your own fabric for making a garment (provided it's suitable) and you will even receive a few percent off the retail price.

slightly steamy waistcoat

I rarely create anything for myself but this turn-of-the-century inspired vest was definitely a must-do on my list. It was also a chance to use up a few of my beloved leftover fabrics and the pattern mix actually adds to this style.

It has three welt pockets (including one for my pocket watch of course!), a faux leather collar and all natural vintage buttons made of wood and ivory nut.

This vest is one of a kind, but if you're interested in a similar garment, feel free to contact me.
