il Sangue

http://www.ilsangue.com il Sangue is a clothing and accessory label created by Virginia Williams. Our primary influences are Lolita fashion, Victorian era fashion, Edwardian era fashion, as well as 1940s and 1950s fashion.

Would you like to see a few of the pieces that we've made this summer?

It's been a while since we've made any updates here! We have been hard at work behind the scenes, including some workshops with Seattle Fashion Incubator and Lee & Hayes PLLC. But we did have a collaboration for a styled photoshoot this Spring. Check out a few of our favorite highlights! Oryx was also one the models in our RAW showcase last year, and she looks gorgeous as ever.

Just a reminder that my fashion showcase is going to be THIS COMING SATURDAY, July 27th, from 6-11PM at Trinity Nightclub. The runway portion begins around 9PM, but I will have a booth with accessories and there are a lot of amazing artists to check out! Street parking is free after 7PM, and tickets are only $10 if you purchase them in advance VIA THIS LINK. Please come out to support my first big fashion event in Seattle! If you can’t make it, please reblog and tell your friends. :)

My clothing label has been invited by RAW: natural born artists to be featured in one of their showcases this summer! The event will be on July 18th, from 7:00PM-midnight at Aston Manor here in Seattle (unfortunately, due to the venue, this event is 21+). You can already purchase tickets on my page by clicking on the image here! (Please note that I am required to sell a certain number of tickets. So if you plan to come, make sure and purchase them through my page specifically!)

If you're interested in any of the items, you can leave me a note on the EGL_comm_sales post, send me an e-mail (ginny-at-ilsangue.com), or drop me a note on our FB page.

Attn Austin, TX area girls (and fashionable boys)! Some of you may know that in addition to running il Sangue, I have been working as a production seamstress for Ciarla Designs. In between packing for Seattle, I've been helping Ciarla with her 2013 Ready to Wear collection. The whole collection will be unveiled at a later time, but you can catch a sneak peek at this free party at Estilo in downtown Austin, while enjoying some cocktails and music. Full information on the event's FB page.

I'll let you in on a secret: Kate is my favorite muse and model. Doesn't she look great in il Sangue's Gone Sailing skirt set?
