Stalking some steampunk consulting detective character or something

I asked Bertha at Size Queen Clothing to make me an Inverness cloak with a purple lining. She did a fabulous job and I love it. Have a look.

Wow, that is an awesome cloak! So beautifully cut and I love the fabric and lining. This looks like the promo shots for a very cool detective show on the BBC.

Now that would make a person wishful to leave the house. (I have trouble with this in the winter months.) I too love the second pose a lot.

Great cloak! It really suits you.

The houndstooth has a hint of purple too.

Er, I mean herringbone.

Yeah, I was a little surprised to see that in the final photo, since it was quite evident there and less so in the others. Definitely something that sets it even more clearly into the gorgeous and special category.

[identity profile] baratron.livejournal.com 2013-02-05 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
The last shot is best for seeing the fabric, but the first shot is best for seeing you. SO PURPLE! I'm envious!

[identity profile] jillzilla.livejournal.com 2013-02-10 03:53 pm (UTC)(link)
I think it's spectacular.
