Sarah A. Willis

Sarah made this decadent court gown to wear at the 2005 Michigan Renaissance Festival where she portrays a fictional German duchess, Herzogin Sybella Von Adder. I love her creative sleeve treatments, and you can see the inspiration for that detail in the Les Femmes Musiciennes illustrations by Tobias Stimmer. You can find one more lovely side view of the dress here (photos courtesy of Pam Papo), and Sarah can be reached at crystalxmethod(at)yahoo(dot)com.
