Hi, my name is Marie and I am obsessed with antique, vintage and old stuff! 

My tagline is "Dresses with stories and photography for the female gaze."

I make dresses from secondhand and vintage fabric and dresses and also have a growing collection of vintage dresses to use in photoshoots. 

 

I have a stall at the Petticoat Lane Emporium, 9 Sandgate Rd, Folkestone CT20 1AL where you will find a selection of secondhand wedding and special occasion wear, and other vintage items. Basically, anything I think is interesting! You'll find me at stall number  18 Kentish Town so if you want affordable wedding dresses and other interesting things with stories in Folkestone, come and see what I have.

I love all sorts of weird and wonderful things, especially if it relates to things that are related to women's history. 

 

I also have a large collection of antique sewing machines. 

I have recently decided to take up photography to document my dresses with local models, make up artists, hairdressers and other local creatives. See HERE for a gallery of shoots, and HERE for a gallery of what dresses I have available. If you want to shoot with me, use the Contact Me page. 

I am neurodivergent and therefore my attention tends to wander - so you might find a wide variety of interests here. 

 

Stay up to date with what I am up to on social media. Instagram is the best place to keep up to date.
