SistersRoseandRuby on Etsy







If you haven't found this shop yet... make a point to go visit. I happened to find them while skimming through Etsy the other day and I really and truly am going to have to consider working one of the long dresses into my wedding. I messaged the designer to get more information and she hand makes each and every piece using vintage pieces (like slips) as a base and adding in doilies, lace, pearl beads, different linens and fabrics to make these beautiful dresses, skirts, and camisoles. I seriously want them all! Many of the pieces have a very Victorian era feel, which is probably why I am so in love. I swear I lived as a Victorian woman in another life. But anyways, back to the designer. The details in these pieces are second to none, and I really cannot concieve the amount of time these must take, but I'm so glad she DOES take the time because they are all stunning. She does do custom designs, and is super sweet in her emails so don't be afraid to ask if you want something unique! The mermaid-esque blue dress below speaks for itself when it comes to her custom designs. I also really enjoy the victorian chokers, and think that they would be awesome as garters for weddings too (hint hint). There are currently over 100 items in the shop available, including the fantastic halloweenish dress posted below. I'm giving you the link below as well as photos of her work. I'm telling you as soon as I have enough I'm going to get one of the long dresses..... to....die...for!!!!!!!!!!! She did ask that we forgive the photos, but I honestly find nothing to forgive, if they really "don't do justice" then can you imagine what they'll be like in person??? Enjoy :)






The above is the dress style that I am so so so in love with.
The mermaid-esque dress, it's like flowing water....



I can just imagine this with a witche's hat and some cute boots and a broomstick .





You have no idea how dangerously close I came to posting all of her pieces on here.... I can't choose favorites....
