A night out?

Friday night must be the right time to show you one more of the dresses I have made!
I made this one for myself last spring. The construction is inspired by japanese "Pattern Magic".

Sadly I don´t remember what kind of fabric it is, but I now that it´s mixed. If I should make it again, then I would use another material, something thinner. But I love the color!

Attire Dolls

Lady's of the fifties Ester Williams & Elisabeth Taylor in dresses BY LOUISE!
(The dresses is designed by me, and so is the pattern.)

Tote Bag

Just remembered that I promised to show you one of the Tote Bags that I've made... This one is made in a rough canvas with stars and straps in crocodile leather. (I ones bought a bag of leftover crocodile leather in  lots of different colors, and finally I have found something that I can use it for!) The bag is made with black lining inside. Enjoy!

Reveal of...

Finally I can show you the black Gala dress which I have designed, constructed and sewn. It's made in 100% silk both inside and out. It has a very simple cut with a waterfall on the back, and a little extra width from a small wedge center back. I hope you like it!

I can also reveal the present that I made last week... It's a tie made in the most amazing fabric, 100 % wool with a shiny surface. I think it looks so nice! I gave it to my boyfriend’s big brother for his 28th birthday. I think he liked it (and I sure hope, the fabric was not cheap...)! What do you think about it?

Fashion Week & Sunday news

This past four days has Copenhagen been covered in Fashion Week. I participated Thursday were I was at the fair in "Bella Center" helping "I tråd med verden". You should check out their website, they make lots of nice accessories! The following day (Friday) they got a visit from Crown Princess Mary, so cool that they were chosen!! Unfortunately that was all I did during Fashion week, I was sick. Bad timing!

Below you can see my latest sketches made in Illustrator. Just trying some different stuff, but I think they look great!
I have now taken pictures of my three latest sewing projects. I just need to run them through Photoshop, so they are worth uploading in here!
Hope all of you had a nice weekend!

What happened...

Sorry it’s been so long... I've had so much to do!
1. The Event Silhouettes went so well! A lot of people came to have a look, the atmosphere was good, and so was the entertainment. I talked to a lot of people, got my picture taken next to my jacket by some photographers, and I handed out a lot of my postcards. Hopefully that will bring some job opportunities in the future!! I was also asked to write a small article for a Textile magazine, very interesting I think!
2. I finished the black silk dress yesterday, and I hope to post a picture of it soon, so that all of you can see it. It looks very elegant and classy!
3. I'm so into the Computer Design course that I'm taken! It's cool to make patterns for textile printing (I think I will print one of my patterns on silk, and make a nice fifties dress), and also to draw working sketches of clothes. Below you can see some I've made…
The dress is my own design. I like that it's so classic, and that it makes me think of the feminine fifties... It is simple and feminin!
4. Now I've started working on a present.. I can't tel you much about it yet, because I will give it away this Saturday.. Uhh...
