Heather’s one of a kind wedding gown is made of ivory silk taffeta. We worked together to arrive at a design that showcased her elegant Art Nouveau tattoo. The custom corset has a sturdy three-layer construction. The skirt drapes gracefully across the front and falls to a series of pleats at the back.
Heather was an absolute delight to work with, and I was pleased to be able to create something for her beautiful wedding!

This cute little corset and skirt set was built from a secondhand men’s suit. The fabric is a light wool blend, and the pink godets in the skirt were taken from a thrifted women’s blouse. The godets match the pink lacing on the corset. The buttons on the front of the corset are also from the original suit.
This particular set is available for $275. If you would like a custom version, I’d be delighted to make one – please contact me at info@tulgeywooddesigns.com for details.

I created this period outfit for the Museum of the Great Plains in Oklahoma. I’m a bit of a museum nerd, so I was very happy to take on this project!
The shirtwaist is Gibson style, popular in the early 1900s. It is made of fine cotton batiste, and has extensive pintucking and insets of antique lace. The shaped belt adds to the S-curve silhouette. The worsted wool skirt is lined, and the flared shape is typical of the Edwardian style.
