This fascinating wormhole provided for the benefit of anyone who may have thought my silhouette in that blue dress was a natural occurrence rather than a miracle of engineering. Custom-made underpinnings from the amazing Evgeniya at Nemuro Corsets. Fuck you gravity, I won’t do what you tell me 💕✨💅

Honestly I’m not good at social media, I had an empire back on MySpace and everything since has just felt like work, but I was talking to a friend earlier about my hero Ethel Granger and she suggested I use this platform to inform and educate re. her amazing life and work…

Anyway I finished that dress - long story but I ended up placing the fastenings so as to fit over a ridiculous corset. Fabric cost £1/metre but I feel incredibly glamorous; just throwing on some diamonds and a mink and then I’m off out for cocktails maybe steal someone’s husband or something I dunno

My whole life I have believed - I have KNOWN - that Immanuels cannot wear yellow, as a child my mother warned me that no yellow garment could ever flatter me or my kind, it was gospel, it was law, and I never questioned it, not even for a second. So why do I suddenly find myself doubting everything

Regards from Europe. Yes it is raining, and someone doesn’t know she’s going to the vet later

It still needs hemming, a few finish-y bits, and also I’m not sure exactly where I’m going to position the fastenings; also forgive the weird audio - still getting used to this Bluesky lark - but pleased!
