Stunning Images Of Jellyfish At The Vancouver Aquarium
The Vancouver Aquarium is Canada’s largest aquarium. The magical place displays over 50,000 animals and unique opportunities to gaze eyes upon some of the most mystical creatures in the world. Each visit is an unforgettable one.
A group of jellyfish are seen above swimming and glowing through the water. Their ethereal beauty is immediately captivating. They light up the water like floating glimmer.
I finished my beautiful lacy beast! It took me a few months, 11 yards of cotton sateen, forty yards of lace, and many hours of hand sewing, but it’s done!
This dress is based on this ensemble from the 1860s. The dress is made of cotton sateen with tulle, chantilly lace, alencon lace, embroidered lace, and beaded details. The vast majority of it was hand sewn.
The bodice is lined with cotton, lightly boned, and laces up the back. The skirt closes with hooks and weighs eight pounds thanks to all the embellishments. It has a twenty four inch waist and is worn over a steel boned corset, hoop skirt, hip roll, and petticoat. All of which were made by me!
It was a process, with lots of ups and downs but i’m really pleased with the end result. Construction notes and more photos can be found here!
