Your Fantasy Costume

Uptight Clothing is a small independent business based in UK  specializing in couture corseted wedding/bridal gowns, underwear corsets and fantasy jewellery. All the gowns are  inspired by period, theatrical and fantasy elements.  In vibrant colours and with exquisite embroidery all elements are one of a kind and completely designed and made to order individually for each client, that is able to deal  exclusively with the designer, Janice Whitehorn, from the initial consultation, fittings and finishes, dealing with you personally, all the way. Below you can see an example of their exquisite embroidery patterns.

This is a site I recommend for weddings, because they’re indeed for a special celebration at least. The collection also offers some models that would be lovely for film and theater too. They’re quite pricey  (around 3000 pounds) and requires early booking as a limited amount of gowns are made per year (this is good, because it’s not a massively produced stock and it does really show. This is really for fairytale weddings.

As it’s based in UK and it does required some fittings with the client, this website is recommended mostly for people in this country. She makes big sizes too, in fact the gallery shows examples of gorgeous looking real brides. I think the collection speaks by itself.  If  I were rich LOL ….!

Zizzy fay is a lovely collection of fairy inspired clothing. You can design unique outfits by combining different layers of silks and natural fibres in your favorite colours. For ethically made party dresses, wedding attire, casual wear and clubbing gear that emphasise the elemental, goddess or fairy  within. I’d highlight the sleeves that you can purchase in different colours and combine with dresses, silk corsets and tops. This is a very smart idea as you can use them as an extra and interexchange from one combination to another.  But the site also offers some wings  along with some other  accesories as well. It also features a nice collection of pixie wear for men too and a couture service for wedding garments made to measure.  Colour patters go from white and ivory raw  silk to green and brown earthy tones.

I also love the fairy skirts and tops (look above) specially in the green combinations,  they have a insect-like air that mimic perfectly the creatures of the forest.
And of course the hooded (see “priestress dress” design” in the picture below) designs and  some lovelycoats that could be perfectly used as “fairy” casual wear as well.

What kind of fairy are you..?
