TDLM Lucien Lelong
This is my most recent TDLM reproduction. It took me a while to find the fabric. I was so happy to find this beautiful silk chiffon. I wish I had bought more. It took me a while to figure out how to do the collar and cuffs. I ended up making two separate bodices and sandwiching the skirt between them. I was very pleased how it turned out.

TDLM- Jean Desses
This outfit was designed by Jean Desses. I made it out of a tiny black and white check and black wool. The hat is made of wool felt.

Tulip Dress






I found this beautiful fabric while I was in Portland Oregon two years ago. It is silk and the small print was perfect for Gene. I only bought a small piece because it was expensive. Last year I was in Portland again. I must say I love fabric shopping in Portland. The Mill End Store still had the same fabric, so I bought a little bit more. Now I am kicking myself that I didn't buy more of it. I only had enough fabric for two dresses.
Originally, I was going to make sheaths, but then I was inspired by a Silkstone Barbie outfit. I discovered after I was done, that this dress won't fit the AD Genes. I didn't realize that the Wu Genes are a little smaller in the bust.
