Flower girl dress lace embroidery bubble

Here are some pho­tos of the new Bergé Dress. (Some pho­tos show the ear­ly skirt sam­ples- with no embroi­dery and dif­fer­ent fabrics.) Ukrain­ian East­er eggs, Impe­r­i­al Fabergé eggs and Beranger, a musi­cian who I worked with while I final­ized the dress design, inspired the design and name, Bergé. This design is for the fun and chic girls!  There’s a sep­a­rate pet­ti­coat to wear under the skirt- for a fuller/bubble appear­ance. (Gigi is not wear­ing the pet­ti­coat in the b/w...

The Calling of the Artist
Marusya
Ukrainian Seamstress Tailor Mary Grace Godfrey

The best things in life uplift us. I am not talk­ing about ele­va­tors when we need to get to the top floor, (although that is nice). Rather I am talk­ing about lift­ing our spir­its as we go about our day-to-day activ­i­ties. This is the role of the artist, who “give us enthu­si­asm to do our work” as St. John Paul II said in his famous Let­ter to Artists. Beau­ty speaks...

Before my nieces sep­a­rat­ed for the sum­mer, my sis­ters and I decid­ed it would be fun to have the girls dress up in Ana­gras­sia (Over­stock Shop) flower girl lace leotards/bodysuits and tulle skirts and have a tea party. The girls enjoyed Babcha’s sprin­kled cup­cakes, Bam­ber’s Mar­ket cook­ies, and milk. Because of the Pan­do­ra (French Cafe) music play­ing in the back­ground, it was near­ly impos­si­ble to keep one of my nieces from get­ting up...
