Simplicity Pattern Photo

Theresa LaQuey is a very talented custom clothier who specializes in Art Deco and vintage-inspired evening wear and wedding dresses. We first met years ago when I hired her to help out with my 1930s-style wedding dress, and I was impressed with her combination of impeccable style, top-notch sewing skills, and attention to detail. In addition to her sewing business serving individual clients, Theresa is also a skilled pattern designer and produces her own name-brand line of patterns for the Simplicity Pattern Company.

I was super thrilled when Theresa recently asked me to provide hats for the photo shoot for her most recent design for Simplicity. Theresa chose a cherry Una mini top hat and an Yvette top hat to compliment the steampunk-Victorian theme of the clothes. Here's the image of the pattern envelope. Love how the photos turned out.

Soon on Simplicity

Theresa LaQuey is a brilliant custom clothier who specializes in vintage styles for men and women, including gorgeous wedding dresses and Art Deco-era fashions. She's also a best-selling pattern designer for Simplicity Patterns. She's just borrowed some of my hats to use in a photo shoot of her brand new styles for Simplicity. Until the patterns are officially announced, the designs are super top secret. I can't wait to see how they turn out.
