I-ve just finished a couple of items that you can find on my website.
They are heavily retro influenced, very 40s vamp look.
They are both fitted pencil skirt dresses, below-knee length -which is a length that flattens everyone, unless you have long legs because it will make them look even longer-.
Anyway, as you can see, the neckline is beautifully framed with pleated chiffon that I have hand pleated myself (yes, one by one, my neck was killing me by the time I finished it...). The red dress is made out of cotton and the black one is made of jersey. Hope you like them.

Glamourous draped front soft-jacket
Hi everyone! I-ve just finished a beautiful jacket so I was dying to post the pics on the blog.
As you can see, it is a very feminine and flattering jacket with the "somehow retro feel" trademark of TheBlackWardrobe... ;)
It has a beautiful waterfall of drapes at the front than can be cinched with a satin ribbon and the neckline is adorned with a discrete frill of satin (lined with jersey).
It will look perfect on a pencil skirt or any other fitted bottoms. It's on sale on the website for £60. (plus £8 shipping for Europe, for overseas, please ask). It is handmade by me (like everything else).
There are more pics on the website, have a look, give feedback or place an order!
