  • I must not fear.
    Why celebrate the center of summer? Instead I suggest a pre-Halloween ritual of decadent delirium. After all, summer is merely the sweltering crucible inferno all of us must weather to earn the sacred season that is autumn. What will you be sewing for spooky season?
    Hold the holy power of perfect pumpkins in thy heart dearest, and sequin away, for certain styles need early planting before the harvest.

    I don't understand why no one has brought you onto their team to create a fashion line. You are literally an artistic director, seamstress, and model ALL. IN. ONE. I just have the highest level of respect for your work and you as a person. Just putting it out in the universe that someone in the upper echelons of fashion discovers you and takes you to higher heights (if that is something you desire) and that you can finally find the Victorian house of your dreams. Keep being amazing!

    I didn't think it possible, but this is even better than the last collection. I cannot even begin to think of the amount of work that went into this and previous extravaganzas. The sets alone are amazing. The accessories are truly next level, esp the headresses and hats. I WANT the full face covering headress you led with! Even though there is a significant variety here, the collection is SO cohesive! I can see inspirations from knights templar, the inquisition, Dune, bedoin women, convents, Agatha Christie fem fatales, suits of armor, i could go on, but it all fits with the Sanctus title and is so very attractive on you! You look mysterious, seductive, dangerous, smart and ironically and intelligently humorous all in one. I consider myself a bit of a fem fatale as well with the "true" hourglass figure, a curators (or theatrical producers) eye for creating an image, vibe, ambiance, and character - you name it..but you put me to shame. I am with everyone else who feels it's inconceivable that you haven't been discovered outside of youtube (or maybe you have but want to own your work? (Which would be perfectly understandable:) )
    If you are so inclined as to branch out, i think a publisist could lead you to some pretty astronomical opportunities. There is no question you could hold your own in the big leagues. Right now i am dreaming of remakes of "She", "The (original) Mummy":), etc. using your designs. I recall you saying at various times that as an introvert, you dont have a strong social life..i think there are any number of people in this community who would be honored and inspired to know you in person. Maybe a meet and greet, or a kindred spirit get together would help you realize just how appreciated and amazing you are to others. I just genuinely wish you happiness, success and fulfillment. You are so honest, open, authentic and gifted. You deserve every good thing the world has to offer. Meanwhile, please keep producing...i gobble it up l Iike candy..its a genuine treat! I liked this one so much, i think i may become a patron!
    So very well done.... congratualtions!

    It's like Theirry Mugler and Alexander McQueen had a baby who was raised on reruns of Blade Runner and Dune (both versions...and maybe the tv series thrown in for good measure).
    Your creations and compositions are stunningly beautiful.

    Oh my god. I love all your look books but this was just like watching the most amazing runway show - the armour inspired pieces, the face obscuring veils, the layers on layers of details and textures... and of course your signature nipped waists and dramatic necklines
    It's all so good. Please go and actually get some rest after making all of that!

    Your work is inspired! No one in the commercial design sphere is doing anything so edgy, yet so accessible. That's okay, though. It inspires the rest of us to blaze our own trail of person style and expression.

You should follow the path of one of your mentors, Thierry Mugler, and start doing the performance wardrobes of singers on tour. I'm old, so I don't know who's who now, but in my day it was someone like David Bowie, Michael Jackson, Grace Jones, Madonna ... You're a polymath in the costuming arts ... It's been fascinating watching your transformation on this delightful journey that you are on!

    (I do hope the sequins have not infested every part of your house! I made a robe from a similar fabric in 2015 and was finding sequin crumbs from it for years and years afterwards.)

    First thing I saw when I opened UA-cam this morning was this drop! Bianca your just keeps evolving! Another outstanding offering. It had the feeling to me of the early 1990s in musical offerings and coloring which of course was a throwback to your era that you prefer of that late '30s to early '50s thing. That was when I got married in 1993 and I used music very similar to the stuff that you had overlaid on your video and the colors definitely were exactly what I used black white and gold with flecks of red. So I believe this one is going to live near and dear to my heart for a long time.
