⚔️ Noli Me Tangere ⚔️

⚔️ Touch Me Not ⚔️

Another from our little trip to the Dexter Mausoleum in Cincinnati.
My dearest @goatspell and I will be working on some collabs later this year. We’re aiming for a fall line of coordinating pieces. The benefit of living with your best friend, wife and a fellow creator is that you always get to build on each other’s ideas!

@goatspell is wearing their Hellebore style skirt, a “Noli Me Tangere” ribbon belt and Starry Halo from @voodooodolly , a sample blouse and a sample version of the Cuirass Corset.
Part of making any new piece is trying out different versions of the style to see what works and what doesn’t. This particular attempt at the Cuirass style didn’t have enough interior structure so it wrinkled in a way that thoroughly spoiled the illusion of armor. The real ones we’ll be releasing have boning all around and a layer of heavy canvas behind the silk shell. This gives them a more sculptural shape!
Figuring out what works best for each piece is time consuming but also means that I get to be very proud of the final style!
Is there anything behind the scenes you’re curious about when it comes to developing new styles?
