What fun!. I like the black and white gown you are wearing, Kate. That hat looks amazing!

oh, wow, those are amazing!!! Super love the cream and gold outfit... They are all just gorgeous to look at, but the men's clothing is particularly drool worthy.

Oh Wow Kate.. I love them all. Can't wait to see a front shot of the black and white you are wearing. The whole event must have been glorious!

Oh, Kate!! Thanks so much for sharing the finished looks! Yours are my favorite; such gorgeous elegant simplicity, but they're all fantastic.

Did you blog all these pictures? I'd love for my readers to see these!

Su put a whole lot from the event up here:

On the white gown, my Alan made the silver ship she has in her hair. We should be able to get some better shots from elsewhere...

I have to say that there is as much work in the sacques as there is in a boned wedding gown - if not more! The white with the black print was made to look like the Janet Arnold drawing rather than the original, and I think that worked well.

There will be better pix, especially of that GIGANTIC black hat with the feathers!

Beautiful work, Kate! I especially love the black and white, and that ice blue/silver men's ensemble is absolutely gorgeous!

Kate,
the quality of these pieces just takes me breath away. Thanks for sharing.

I am in awe... Wonderful work, Kate! Well, everyone, really, since I haven't said so in a while... I've been truly impressed with everything I've seen in here recently!

Hat stats:

The black one is 28" across and held on with a ribbon! It has six large ostritch feathers, several roses, and both cream and black ribbons. I think it ate my brain!

The little tricorn had a bunch of feathers and a BIG rose, and was skewered through my wig (christened the Brian May Wig for obvious reasons) and my hair... with a 14" long hatpin with a Venetian glass decoration on the end!

Su decorated her hat over breakfast.

My Alan painted the masks.

Thank you all for your kind comments. I hope to be able to complete the dress diaries for the last few days of construction next week, and put the new pix we took at the photo shoot up on the new website soon too.

I can't wait to read the diaries, that's my favorite part! The gowns and hats are so amazing. You are so talented.

Syrilla · February 26, 2011, 11:14:39 AM

Amazing as always!

You can't see me, but I am jumping up and down and clapping. I can't wait to read the diaries! Thanks for linking them.

Sorry there are so many! I really seem to have got the verbals on this...
