Golden Jubillee Sale at Vaudeville Gypsy

Over the Bank Holiday for HM Golden Jubilee I shall be running a sale over at Vaudeville Gypsy on Etsy. My shop has a range of Tribal Fusion and Steampunk inspired costume and accessories. Many if not most of my pieces are OOAK, unique and made using a combination of Vintage and Antique treasures for the Belly Dance community and beyond. They are all handmade by me using good quality materials and with care and attention to detail.

Some pieces have rare pieces of Antique french jet or beautiful bullion braid, dating from the Victorian period. I love the 1920s and have produced flapper headdresses from these treasures.

Also included in the sale will be several Gypsy Twist skirts, my asymmetrical take on the hip accent, overskirt or hip wrap. These can be worn in several different ways, worn down, tied up one or both sides, or even as a poncho style shoulder wrap. Great for covering tums and bums!

Not forgetting my Ruffle N Bustle skirts. These are great fun. They too can be worn in several ways because of the incorporated channels. All up they make a great bustle skirt.

I've re-opened my Etsy shop!

I made the decision to re-open my Etsy shop the other day, I've been pondering it for some time now and decided what the hell! Only pixie steps so far. I have a handful of special items including the following headpieces/headdresses.



Made with the finest quality materials, all these pieces have great attention to detail and can be found in the Hair Jewels section of my shop. The two flapper style headbands both have antique elements including bullion braid and French jet. The Gypsy Rose headpiece has a mixture of silk and flocked roses, a vintage jewelled brooch and ostrich plumes. Glamour rules!

So please take a moment to look at my Etsy shop, favourite my shop and add me to your circle. And if you're feeling like a 21st Century Vamp you may end up the proud new owner of one of these wearable works of art.
