Hot boy summer

Junji Ito made a short synopsis manga for The Lighthouse for its Japanese theatrical run. It’ll be published in theater pamphlets sold at Japanese theaters on July 9, 2021.

I timed myself making this waiscoat and it took 19.5 hours so I decided to add materials + labor costs and it came out to $366.50 which is wild

recently saw a bunch of stills from the 1940 zorro film and they very just too good and gay to not draw the oldest guard boys like them - and i honestly really like how it turned out! prints and such here ⚔️

A rosebud tiara was fitting … || IG || ✨

Also Beau Brummel got in terrible debt and had to flee the country, and died in Paris, of syphilis. So there’s that.

The Brighton tailor whose identity became his business            

Zack MacLeod Pinsent dresses as a Regency gentleman every day, saying that the clothing is a "huge confidence builder".

He ceremoniously burned his last pair of jeans when he was 14-years-old and hasn't looked back since.

His passion for historical outfits has led him to take up a career in tailoring, making clothes in period styles at his workshop in Brighton, East Sussex.

He now has clients overseas and has recently returned from a business trip to New York.

the raspberry dress

I feel like we need to stop Twitter call outs and go back to publishing them in the newspaper like gentlemen.

I love Good Omens and the Regency fashion style, so I had to draw my take on how these two dorks would have looked in the “bookshop opening” missing scene!

Here’s part of it:

So adorable XD

I feel like everyone is talking about reviving the flapper aesthetic for the 20s, when there is clearly only one “twenties” fashion that needs to be brought back...

1820s Hair Sculpture

Regency Aziraphale and Crowley in the style of Ingres’s portrait drawings.

I remember copying Ingres at school was gruelling but equally rewarding. It usually involved hours at the Met drawing room with a magnifier. Each one of his lines is expressive, and every edge is finely controlled. An Ingres copy wouldn’t have the feel of the original at all if it’s not done this carefully with a SHAAARP pencil on very smooth paper. (Ironically, not Ingres paper...)

I took out the same magnifier and all the Ingres catalogues I could find at my place for this drawing too... The struggle is real (?)

Emma. (2020) dir. Autumn de Wilde

«Nicodemus was positively fierce in his affections. Sharp and frightening as if he were set on wielding his own heart as a weapon. But Mari was too serene to be afraid. Or perhaps simply too stubborn.» 

Mari first, Nico second. Two men bound together by an odd fate. Impending doom, strange cults of eldritch gods, occult studies, missing siblings, working through trauma, finding peace and...queer love.

My fiance and I are working on a novel with these two as protagonists and I poured all my love into their portraits.

I made myself a little bag. I'm still not sure how I'm going to close it though. Thinking of adding a drawstring or maybe a button... desicisons, desicions!

Valentinesday is coming up so I decided to write a letter inspired by valtentinesday letters of the 18th and early 19th century. It‘s all written in German „Kurrent“ and can make reading pretty hard. I have actually really fallen in love which this certain fun way of letter folding.
