"Queen's Candy" Spring Collection is now here!


So after a whole week's worth of sewing, I finally have both sample pieces done of the new "Queen's Candy" spring collection. This collection features a very sweet print of macarons and cupcakes and comes in two colorways. I was also able to make two matching accessories to go with the collection. Matching jewelry is still under development as I discuss designs with a fellow indie designer and friend, Aisha of Roserie.

Reservation dates will be up very soon. Right now I am in the middle of transitioning to New York so I won't have much time to sew, so those who are interested in putting in a reservation will have to wait a bit longer for their items to be made and sent out. More details to come very soon about that!

For more photos, please check out the "Whats New" tab at the top of the page!

Please note that these sample pieces are made a bit smaller in size to ensure my own personal fit. They are mainly based off of Japanese brand sizing, but whoever puts in a reserve will have a choice of a more custom fit according to the bodice or waist size. The light pink tulle trim on the pink JSK is also sample only, a brighter pink will be used for the pieces that will be sold. Finally, versions of the macaron brooch/hair clips will also be made in black to match the black colorway of the print.




Enjoy~!
