Brooklyn Bride and Her Rainbow Entourage

Beautiful bride Allison originally contacted me about making a collection of tutus for her fabulous bridal party way back in May of 2013. I of course said "Yes!" 

Her color pallet was beyond fun and I'm happy to say, looks like everyone was having a blast.

A Bride After My Own Heart!

I came across these vivid images on Rock n Roll Bride's Blog and was totally floored!

This bride encapsulates the image and attitude of Dark Pony Designs. Even though she is not wearing one single stitch of Dark Pony, I wanted to share this because I love her bold choices. The head piece is fabulous, the gloves, the hot pink underskirt, the bright blue shoes.... I could go on and on.

To see the whole wedding all of its splendor go to Greenweddingshoes.com

Like a Bride

I am so excited for these new pictures! I am slowly putting together a complete bridal collection with that Dark Pony twist. I wanted to evoke an early 80's Madonna vibe, without being too obvious (did it work?) Next I am thinking shoe clips, satin clutch, and bib necklace; for the bride to be of course.

Totally Tutu

The tutu. Every woman who loves glamour, will at some point, fall under the spell of the tutu. Whether it's a skirt, a dress, a halloween costume, or a traditional ballet tutu...you will want one. Perhaps it's because you feel a little like a princess, a bride or a fairy-even though you don't really want to admit it. I mean a full grown woman might be a little embarrassed to fess up to loving the same thing a 5 year old does. But, really, some things never change.

When I decided to make a tutu skirt to complement a bustier top I was working on I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I thought it would be a quick and simple sewing project. Without fail, whenever I think that, the project ends up taking 5 times longer than I anticipated and I think about throwing it in the garbage multiple times each day. But I persevered! After 10 yards of white tulle, 2 trips to the fabric store, and more than a few choice words to my sewing machine...I present my version of the super fun, super cute tutu. I have also provided some of my inspiration...enjoy.
