Lelahel's diary

So here is my pic for the contest on Evil Resin Forum with tema "Alice in Wonderland" :

I enjoyed making the outfit and the crown and i like this doll so much : i look at her and she makes me smile ! Well maybe i could have added some red hearts on the skirt or some other things, i don't know... It is still time to change it anyway : the deadline is on saturday. What do you think about it ? This tema is soo large and i had millions of ideas, maybe i'll make some other outfits, i mean out of the contest. It makes me think that i really like the cheshire cat piposdoll made ^^ Have you seen them ? This one limited edition is my favourite, here ^^

I start to call my doll by the name of her mold and not the name of my character anymore. I totally still found her magic and beautiful but as the idea of the reincarnation is taking its place in my mind, the doll become a doll again and not my character.
Well i put her on sale on DoA and Materiel Celeste. I wanted to propose a dress for the buyer so i made this outfit and decided to make a photoshoot with it to celebrate my 200 tweets on twitter lol You can check the pic on my deviant or twitter and here is one just for this place ^^

oh and thanks again a lot Lewellyne & Silentism for your coms on the previous post ! ^^

So i finally made my first top for iplehouse jid boys (iplehouse msd dolls). Not really easy, those molds have way more mature bodies than most of the other dolls in 40cm. So this jacket is not perfect but at least i can see where are my mistakes.

Now i can start a halloween costumes for him too ^^ !

I finally did a new layout for my blog ! What you think about it ? Of course it's not as pretty as the one before : i made it myself lol As i'm not really a profesionnal with that kind of stuffs, it's the best i could do ! But now the captcha is working again and you can leave me comments if you wish. And pleeaaase leave me comments, i feel like i'm writting for myself there ^^ I just noticed the captcha is in french... Well yes i have no idea how to change this, but most of the time you just have to copy the numbers to unlock it and leave comment so... ^_^

I made my first halloween outfit ! I really want to make several dresses and costumes for msd sized dolls and maybe for sd dolls. But as i decided to put my dolkot bera on sale, i don't know if i want to work on her or not... Well anyway here is mielikki with a witch dress ^^

I won't keep the outfit, i'll put it on sale on my next update on forums.
I opened my Etsy page some days ago ! I like this website, i could spend hours to see handmade stuffs. Some people are really talented and i could spend all my money there lol Well please visit this new place for lelahel ^^ : Lelahel's Etsy
I still haven't solved the problem of coms here. I will maybe come back to my old layout for the blod and the captcha could work again but this one is soo pretty lol
Well if you want to leave me a message try on myspace or my twitter though ^^

i've been working on another cuivre outfit but for minifee sized girls. Well it's not exactly the same (i didn't have enough fabric anymore). here it is ^^ :

recently i decided to make handbags, for one excellent reason : i want a new one for me but i have no budget at all for it. I made 2 prorotypes so far :


Of course those are the first ones, i still have to make them better but i think i like the general shape.
Oh and i just noticed yesterday that nobody could leave a comment here on my blog anymore ! I get a captcha software here to prevent adds but with my new layout, the captcha is not visible and as you can not enter the letters to have a permission to post, well you just can not post anymore 0_0 so i'll look for a solution, i hope i won't have to remake my blog because i don't want to lost the two years of articles i wrote here...

Some days ago i've been to a special exhibition in one of Lyon's museum : an exhibition dedicated to the french designer and haute couture's brand Franck Sorbier. I really like his work and he made costumes for my favourite french singer - Mylene Farmer - for her lives in 2006. I had two excellent reasons to go to this exposition and i wouldn't have missed the occasion even if the entrance fee was kind of expensive for me (10€).
Very quickly, a short summary of Franck Sorbier's carreer. He worked for Chantal Thomass (famous lingerie's designer) and Thierry Mugler and created his own brand in 1987. In 1995 the French jeweller and watchmaker Cartier gave him the opportunity to present his winter 95/96 collection and In 1996, he became a member of the French Federation of Couture and Ready-To-Wear,supported by Jean-Paul Gaultier and Sonia Rykiel. In 1999 he presented his first haute couture collection. You have to know that in France every brand can not make a Haute Couture's collection : you have to respect strict criteria to get your brand admit to the "community". It's a little bit hard for me to explain it in english, so please if you're curious about it, is everything you need to know about Haute Couture in wikipedia.
When i've been to the exhibition, i have been soooo impressed by the clothes that i could easily understand why Franck Sorbier is one of the most important brand in fashion. That was unbeliviebly beautiful and details were amazing. He uses a lot of lace and ribbons on his dresses and i am sure that some of the outfits i saw required months of work, handmaded work. I can't say how much i have been moved... Some were made of very unusual material such as raffia. He works on collaboration with his wife too : she paints gorgeously on fabrics to make them unique. Of course i didn't like all of the outfits, but i have been fascinated at every single dress, by the work, the originality, creativity. That was a great lesson of Art.
I couldn't take any pictures so i took some photos on internet here, found in google.


Oh this one (up) was for a collection made with tema "circus" and the name of the outfit is "Madame Loyale".

This one has been made for Mylene Farmer (the woman you can see on the right pics). I have admired 4 outfits made for this live tour and it's even more beautiful than here on the pic.

One of the dress made of raffia.

Of for this one i have been moved by the face of the model. He rarely has very famous top models but he chooses them with expressivity, and i think this girl has one of the most beautiful visage i've seen...

I easily imagine myself wearing this jacket, every day lol


Here you can see details of the fabrication of the dress : he used compressed tulle.
And finally, here is his website : Franck Sorbier thanks Mr Sorbier...

I recieved my gumdrops eyes this morning ! I was waiting for them for 6 months now ! Those are Standard Teal 14mm. It was supposed to be for my bera but the color is not Lelahel's one at all (i don't know why i took those ones when i ordered). But they're great on my anos. I don't know for now if i'll keep them or not but i have to admit they're really beautiful and deep.

(sorry for the bad pic)
Now i'm waiting for my msc bottles to re do neylan's face up...and for money, to buy him a body ^^ And no money without working, so go go go Lelahel !
