Apart from the net layer in the skirt, this outfit is all pure silk. I’m making way for a lot of new stock, so I’ve reduced this fairy costume by £18! It’s never too early to start thinking about your festival outfits, and this one would be perfect! For more photos and details, take a look at Oshun Creations on Etsy.
I’ve got so many plans for Oshun this year. but I’m really hoping to make more of these beautiful maxi goddess dresses for summer. They’re perfect for packing for holiday in the suitcase as they roll up small, and can be quickly thrown over the top of a swimming costume to wear to the beach restaurant!
Hi! World Book Day is coming up on the 2nd March, so I thought I’d give a 20% discount on my book dress as it would be the perfect costume / outfit to wear on the day! I’ve also added a couple of new photos to the listing so you can see a close-up now of some of the details of the dress – the paper roses, the patterns of the paper punch I used, and even one of the butterflies I cut out of paper and added to the skirt part of the dress.
I loved making this dress and it would be brilliant to see it go to a new home. Sadly it didn’t fit a lady who came here to try it on, but she had the idea to wear it to cosplay as The Library from Terry Pratchett’s Discworld novels. What a cool idea!
If you enjoy reading, I think it would be a unique alternative wedding dress; or perhaps a fairytale ball gown at a literary event. Anyway, now’s the time to get it while it’s on sale with £50 0ff! Find it at Oshun Occasions.
Just thought I’d share my latest Instagram photo as I think it shows this Oshun dress beautifully. I’ll be making a new collection of silk chiffon dresses, tunics and kaftans for the summer – I love working with such pretty materials. Look out for them on Oshun Creations!
Hello! I hope you’re all keeping warm! If you’d like to see the process of how I made the black and red dress mentioned in my last post, then please take a look at this sewing video. It shows the process of how to make the dress using the black materials and the roses embroidery; how I recycled vintage fabrics to make a new eco-friendly and sustainable item of clothing. It would be a stunning black wedding dress or if you if you’d like to add a touch of romantic gothic to a special occasion!
I’ll be adding a listing to the shop soon which will talk you through the process of how to order a custom handmade dress like this one.
I thought you might like to know about a new Oshun dress that has just been listed onto my OshunOccasions shop on Etsy. It could be worn as a gorgeous gothic black wedding dress, or, as it has a hint of red and embroidered roses, it would be perfect for a night out for Valentine’s Day next week! Here’s the link.
It was actually a New Year’s goal last year to work on my photography for Oshun; which I managed to do a bit, but not nearly as much as I wanted to. So I’m continuing this year and have spent today re-editing some photos I took of the 1920’s flapper vintage style wedding dress (which is actually a skirt and top outfit) I have for sale.
Find this handmade dress for sale at OshunOccasions on Etsy.
Here’s a sneak peak at the start of the first item I’m making this year – it’s a pink and black dress custom order for wearing to special occasions. Take a look on my Instagram.
Do you remember me telling you about my plans for the vintage and antique Christening gowns? Well there aren’t many left in OshunKids now, so I could get started soon! Here’s a vintage baby suit I sent off yesterday.
