  • Ensemble robe et spencer Empire

    Petite robe assez sobre, juste un peu de dentelles pour agrémenter le bas.
    On nous a dit parfois: "Vous êtes très fort sur les uniformes, mais pas sur les tenues de femmes!"
    Et oui, on a eu des commandes pour des centaines d'uniformes et on a ainsi pu prouver ce qu'on savait faire.
    Notre clientèle de reconstitueurs étant essentiellement masculin nous n'avons pas eu beaucoup d'occasions de montrer nos talents en réalisant de belles robes....Mais on ne demande que ça!
    Surtout au niveau de l'atelier où faire des tenus de femmes, ça change.
