About Absinthe's Kiss

other information

I have been making custom clothing and costume for the last 18 years.  This started as my family had a clothing business when I was young and I got the bug from there.  As I was an awkward figure I could never find clothes that would fit well and started to create clothing for myself, and then others. 

Over the years I have trained with Michelle Pye whose extensive experience in the tailoring and couture trade has earned her a place in the Guild of Master Craftsman, and Terry Fox, not only an independent designer in her own right, she has worked with top designers like Zandra Rhodes.

Under their watchful eye I have learned couture techniques as used in the top fashion houses, and tailoring techniques taken from Jermyn Street and Saville Row itself.

These skills and techniques mixed with my love of Gothic and Alternative clothing, add a passion for historical costuming and the fun of Live Role Playing, Absinthe’s Kiss was born.
