As much as we love re-creating specific pieces from film, every once in a while we get a request to go 'off the grid', as it were.  On this page you will find items created to give a general feel for a genre. These are great for those who don't necessarily want to be recognized as any certain character, or for those who wish to portray someone who has not yet had his day on the silver screen.

 

 

 
Gomez Addams
What better way to host a Halloween Party than as Gomez Addams?  The suit is double breasted, of course, and made of cotton velvet.  Features welt breast pockets, functional lapel buttonholes, and trousers with suspender buttons. 
 
Vintage Tie, oversized Brandy glass and Cuban cigar purchased separately.
 
Zombies
In addition to creating clothing, we are also willing to deconstruct them for a variety of occasions.  Pictured is a recent Zombie Prom held here in Portland.  The clothing is a mixture of tailored and found pieces, distressed to give the appearance of having been submerged in sea water for many years.  Adding to the effect is makeup by Once Bitten Syndicate, and a lot of strategically placed seaweed.
 
 
Golden Age of Hollywood
 
Nothing says glamour quite like this era. 
 
The suit is a double-breasted pinstripe black wool, with high-waisted trousers (of course worn with suspenders).   Worn with vintage tie and cufflinks.
 
The gown has a gold and purple brocade bodice, and the skirt is gold silk with a purple chiffon overskirt.  The handbag was made to match, and attached to a vintage accordian frame.  I am also more than happy to share hairstyle tips, if needed.
