Rin and Angelo's Ultimate Hipster Wedding

Last Saturday was Rin and Angelo's super hipster wedding.
I am so proud to have been part of it as it was one of the coolest weddings I have ever been to.

Rin was my bandmate in Death By Tampon, and the inspiration for her wedding dress i made was my SS 2005 collection we wore as a band way back.

 Praying for no rain

Her entourage dresses were pieces from one of my previous collection, which I designed, and Lara and Goldie made the illustrations for, which we added petticoats to.  Totally Death By Tampon wedding!

Cute Goldie

 They really put a lot of love into their wedding, they did their own production design.
They had typewriters where you could type your message to the couple:

 And put it up on strings alongside EverywhereWeshoot's prenup pictures:


Their officemates helped fold the books that were the centerpieces of each table

Even their photographers were hipsters.

Check out Angelo's super hot mom, also in one of my dresses. 

Goldie's nail polish was so matching I had to take a picture.

 Rin will always be Rin, even if its her wedding day.

 Of course having loved Angelo the whole time I knew Rin, I had to get this picture.

 And Lara had to get hers.

It was a beautiful wedding, only two super beautiful and creative people could have come up with.

Congratulations Rin and Angelo! We love you!!!
Thank you for choosing me to make your dress :)

The Blitz Club Reunion

If there is one thing I am really sad about not being in London at the moment it was missing The Blitz Club 30th Anniversary reunion last Saturday.

I am completely fascinated by the Blitz Club

Blitz Kids

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

'The Blitz Kids were a group of young people who frequented the Blitz nightclub in Covent Garden, London in
the very early 1980s, and are credited with launching the New Romantic cultural movement.^[1] Among their number
were Steve Strange, Boy George and his friend Marilyn, Perri Lister, Princess Julia, Philip Sallon, Carl Teper and Martin 
Degville (later to be the frontman of Tony James' Sigue Sigue Sputnik). The club was known for its outrageous style of
clothes and make-up for both sexes, ^[2] [3] while it was also a birth place of several pop groups.

After beginning at Billy's nightclub in the late 1970s, the Blitz Kids had found themselves bored with the whole punk
genre. Billy's had taken to having regular Roxy Music andDavid Bowie nights and, in an effort to find something new,
the denizens took to wearing bizarre home-made costumes and clothing and excessive amounts of make-up, presenting a
highly androgynous appearance. As the group moved on from Billy's to the more elitist "Blitz" club, this was widely
considered to be the birth of the New Romanticmovement.

Soon after, Steve Strange and Boy George became famous in their own right with their musical outings Visage and
Culture Club respectively, as did vocalist Marilyn.

I would have loved to have gone. 

Dressing up is so much fun, I don't understand people who don't. 

That's why I love ShabbaDabbaDa, Daniel Lismore's club night. 

Same eccentricity, really fun people. 

I'd like to know if all the Blitz Kids kept their hats!

please don't do this

otherwise I'd be out of work!
I wonder if these girls realize that the reason why their bodies are shaped so hourglass-y is because they were wearing corsets before this.
