"Raven Noir" @ House of Dashwood

Luckily no one reads this blog ... lol... because I am showing a dress here that I hear will be featured on the Cover of Avenue Magazine in the December issue.. that I'm dying to see!!! HURRRY >>> I can't wait any longer!!!

Anyhow, I give you "RAVEN NOIR" a much awaited non-bridal gown with my signature pick-up skirt.

I havent seen too many designers make pickups work for them... Maybe they aren't working for me... because all i'm doing is texturing flat prims.. there is no Sculpty work here... well I will let you decide... but after many people saying they LOVED "ELLA" but weren't getting married... I decided that this Holiday season I would offer a black gown with pickups!!! Alas .. here it is !!!!

NEWnesss!!! @ House of DASHWOOD

Dashwood in BOSL

The first solo fashion show of House of Dashwood took place on July 10, 201o, produced by the Ultimate Exposure Modeling Agency. The show featured Dashwood's Spring/summer collection, including the 2010 Dashwood Bridal line! This Month the show was written up in BOSL magazine in their August issue!

Thank you BOSL and Lowe Runo!

NEW RELEASE!!!

In honor of my love of the whimsical and fantastical (please let that be a word -lol) and of course anything period costume related. So it just seemed natural that after drooling over the costumes, designed by the AMAZING Colleen Atwood, in Tim Burton's "Alice in Wonderland" that I would bring my versions to u now!... They are not copies.. they are a very accurate interpretation... I did all the artwork myself, including doing a close study and recreating the pastoral embroidery on the hem of the blue dress. I limited my depictions to a bird, rabbit, and fox. The fabric is textured as a silk chiffon. The red and black dress has some fun Goth elements, lots of layers, and lots of Red Queen of Hearts-ness.

Without further adieu, Alice in two of her famous looks... now YOU can be Alice too!!! Come by and pick up your outfit at HOUSE OF DASHWOOD!... Available inworld (See Links) Also available on Xstreetsl.com.

Why I LOVE Second Life!

This Picture should evoke Horror and Terror in the hearts and minds of any bride, bride-to-be, or bride-that-was. But alas, in Second Life you can jump in the cool refreshing water in your wedding gown and look GORGEOUS!!! Not to mention, when you jump out of the water... you are instantly dry, your dress doesnt smell of ocean, and you ready as ever to dance the night away! Where else can you go swimming in a gown or pose for photos in a wedding gown,...IN THE WATER! I knew I had something here when I was fooling around with snapshots so I wanted to take a moment and put it up for whoever might stop by.

New!!! Tiffani Gowns

In honor of my favorite Bloggess, I present a gown that gives color a run for its money! Color is the essence of spring and colorful personality doesnt begin to describe the namesake for this dress. She is Fabulous, daring, exciting, and a Fashion maven! Two different color versions are available and whether you are going dancing, standing next to your best SL friend at her wedding, going out for a day of shopping, or just exploring around this light, airy chiffon texture empire waisted gown will be a treat to wear!

New Bridal Gowns!

Over the past few months House of Dashwood has been making a few changes in the direction of the line. While most lines usually start with a focus, here at House of Dashwood we experimented a little and tried a few different things before settling on what I knew all along. House of Dashwood will be known from here on out for Bridal and Formal wear. In the small store we will still sell some costumes and swimwear but as a designer I must stay true to what I do best. I hope you will agree with me when you see the latest gowns from House of Dashwood that Bridal is where I belong.

And perhaps like the movie Wall-E came into being many years after its inception, the House of Dashwood period inspired collection will find its way to the market someday as well.

Enjoy!.... All Gowns seen here are available at The HOUSE OF DASHWOOD main store at Chronocules 57.17.22 Click the link on the right side! ... Some gowns available on Xstreetsl.com for amazing discount prices!
