Construction Details:

I had been meaning to make an Isabella costume for such a long time. I love Paradise Kiss manga and really loved how Isabella looked as well as some of Isabella???s quotes about the transformative aspect of clothing.
nI really tried to get some proper coat tailoring techniques in and learn some new things with this jacket. It has horsehair canvas inside and I pad stitched the collar among other things. It doesn???t show up well in photos but the overall fabric is a black on black rose pattern and the cuffs and collar have a dot lace overlay. The skirt is a Truly Victorian pattern done in black and gold brocade with layers of black lace and velvet ribbons. The cravat has a lavender butterfly brooch and I???m wearing a purple rose ring.
nUnfortunately all the fabrics are poly and all the layers of this costume make it pretty much a winter only costume.
