Introduction

Welcome to La Dauphine!


My name is Sara and I am starting this blog to both share some tutorials and track my progress as I explore historical costuming and cosplay. My background is in art history with a concentration in portrait miniatures. I have studied in both the United States and England.  I am a self taught seamstress with 9 years of experience.

  3. I think this is an amazing idea. I am a big fan of fashion history myself and my friends think I’m weird to make a tutu just to wear out on an ordinary night. I feel you and look forward to following your adventures.

  4. Hello from Florence, Italy. I'm an art historian and a historical fiction author. I love your gowns and dresses!!! I've written 2 books set in the 18th century (England and France and can easily imagine my protagonists wearing your creations), 2 set in the Renaissance, and a few others. Do you plan on making any Italian Renaissance gowns (late 15th to early 16th centuries)? Keep up the fantastic work. Cheers!!! www.cdemelo.com
