Welcome! Italian reenactor, model and historical costumer with a past as History bachelor.

Guess who has been listed on Etsy? This is one of my very first 1860s designs which works good for day wear or when you're not in the mood to wear fancy silk stuff (walking saunas in summer? I've been there...not funny) as this is made in 100% cotton. I modeled it after a huge weight loss years ago so don't rely on photos too much to check the fit of the bodice but my friend @alessiagiorda who now owns it can assure you it is very lovely 😉 #victorianfashion #historicalcostumedesign #costuming #historicalcostuming #ilfiorenero #historicalcostume #historicalfashion #historicalsewing #midvictorian #crinoline #19thcenturyfashion https://www.instagram.com/p/CThu2VADr3v/?utm_medium=tumblr

Sharing another one with the 1860 silk dress! The bodice closes with handsewn eyelets and has a modesty panel to hide my underwear; would you be interested in seeing the inside of the bodice to look at how I made eyelets?

Another one in 18th century style with the voile robe en chemise. This dress has been quite a best seller in the past weeks, thank you so much!

In case you were wondering where I've been... I took a break from IG in the past 2 weeks. I know this will afflict quite badly my reach in the future but I needed it. I often feel I have to post also if I don't want to as uploads have to be consistent... Which makes me mentally tired. But now it's OK. I will start upload some old pics you never saw like this one with my black chemise dress by @leledigitalartist wearing @madeinhistory_creations jewels and fan. #marieantoinette #marieantoinettestyle #xviiiesiècle #xviiicentury #xviiieme #versailles #18thcentury #18thcenturyfashion #18emesiecle #18eme #rococo #historicalcostuming #ilfiorenero #historicalfashion https://www.instagram.com/p/CTSROK8jN_K/?utm_medium=tumblr

I'm so incredibly excited to show this! This is the first picture took by @leledigitalartist in collaboration with @pinacotecalbertina and @accademia.to, featuring my latest 1830s dress. The dress is probably my best creation so far (I spent entire weeks in fittings) and it definitely needed a proper photoshoot. I'm so grateful we were allowed to shoot inside using also the antique furniture. My mittens are also antique. More to come! #victorianfashion #victorianera #costuming #costumemaker #historicalcostumedesign #reenactor #costumedesigner #maryshelley #1830s #1830sfashion #romanticera #earlyvictorian #ilfiorenero #historicalcostuming #historicalsewing #pinacotecaalbertina #accademiaalbertina (presso Accademia Albertina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CN5Pd3aggD-/?utm_medium=tumblr

Another one with the 1890s black outfit, this time by @leledigitalartist a couple of years ago! Different brooch here... So again not mourning but a fashionable black dress! @fantasy_portrature @themysterypr0ject @portraittogs #labelleepoque #historicalcostuming #ilfiorenero #historicalfashion #gildedage #1890sfashion #costuming #belleépoque #costumedesigner #littleblackdress #charlesworth #latevictorian #fantasy_portrature #themisterypr0ject #portraittogs #endlessfaces https://www.instagram.com/p/CSZ5KFAjGpP/?utm_medium=tumblr

Same dress as yesterday but different background! This gorgeous artwork was made by @leledigitalartist, pattern from @simplicity_creative_group. I'm imagining this dress made again but in different colours... Yummy... #18thcentury #18thcenturyfashion #marieantoinettestyle #marieantoinette #costuming #historicalinspired #historicallyinspired #ilfiorenero #historicalcostuming #historicalsewing #costumedesigner #historicalcostumedesign https://www.instagram.com/p/CSg2CKMj9Rz/?utm_medium=tumblr

Sharing this as I'm quite nostalgic of this 1860s silk dress! It was my 30k project and definitely one of my best costumes so far. As long as the heat wave(s) will end I'll start working on a matching day bodice which will go with an antique self birthday gift that is on the way... #victorianfashion #victorianera #queenvictoria #historicalcostumedesign #historicalcostume #historicalcostuming #ilfiorenero #1860sfashion #silkdress #oneofakinddesigns #igerstorino #costumemaker #accademiaalbertina (presso Accademia Albertina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSfELvkAz4h/?utm_medium=tumblr

I'm so incredibly excited to show you this!! The first pic taken from my photoshoot in Florence with @ericamottinph! I followed her work for ages online and I couldn't miss the chance to collaborate wit her when possible 💕 for the occasion I wore my trusted Ikea white dress, the most elegant in my closet. I will tell more details about this set in the next posts... #edwardians #edwardianstyle #edwardianfashion #gibsongirl #belleépoque #labelleepoque #historicalcostuming #ilfiorenero #historicalfashion #turnofthecentury #early1900sfashion #edwardiandress (presso Florence, Italy) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRhQUczhFRw/?utm_medium=tumblr

I don't have the words to describe the amazing work @deborahzuanazzi.ph did with our first photoshoot! She literally made me a 1830s queen in red 😁👑 it took me a good while to choose which pic upload first and I was tempted to make a carousel but this one is simply so stunning it deserves a proper post! #historicalcostuming #ilfiorenero #historicalcostume #1830s #1830sfashion #romanticera #earlyvictorian #19thcenturyfashion #themisterypr0ject #endlessfaces #portraittogs #historicalmodelling #historicaloutfit https://www.instagram.com/p/CQElV-FAkl1/?utm_medium=tumblr

Sharing a way oooold pic! This was my first 18th century dress made using a @simplicity_creative_group pattern something like a decade ago! The pic was taken in front of @stupinigi_mauriziano by @visuals.of.frank Now, Simplicity asked me to tag them in my oldest works made using their patterns so expect a good bunch of pics in the next days! #18thcentury #18thcenturyfashion #marieantoinettestyle #marieantoinette #costuming #historicalinspired #historicallyinspired #ilfiorenero #historicalcostuming #stupinigi #stupinigimauriziano (presso Palazzina di caccia di Stupinigi) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSePcrJgtFV/?utm_medium=tumblr

...when I tell you 1860s is my era I don't joke! This is also a great way to officially introduce my new Victorian silk ball gown, made for the 30k goal! It took us a while to find the perfect date to shoot it so I'm a little bit late but it's OK 😁 if you like this post please, share it in your stories! Thanks again @accademia.to @pinacotecalbertina @enrico_zanellati for allowing us to shoot.

Sharing some close ups of some of my costumes. What is your favorite? 1770s, Regency, 1830s or 1880s? (ps: the first one is probably my most shared pic of all times...) if you like this kind of post I will make another with different eras! #historicalfashion #historicalcostuming #ilfiorenero #18thcentury #18thcenturyfashion #victorianfashion #victorianera #1830sfashion #regencycostume #ikeadress https://www.instagram.com/p/CQvb8p0A7Wn/?utm_medium=tumblr

Let's start the week with a project I particularly love. I waited a lot before uploading it but now here we are! @deborah.zuanazzi painted me like a true Edwardian villain! The bodice is lavishly trimmed with antique jet beads and tulle (you can see it under the velvet ribbon) and paired with vintage lace and gloves. The choker is also antique from my personal collection. Stay tuned because there's another carousel from this set to come!

Another super gorgeous one from my photoshoot with @ericamottinph in Florence! It is so ethereal and pure I can hardly recognize the daily lady in black that hides underneath... #edwardianfashion #edwardian #edwardianstyle #edwardianfashion #gibsongirl #belleépoque #labelleepoque #historicalcostuming #ilfiorenero #historicalfashion #aroomwithaview #lebazardelacharité https://www.instagram.com/p/CSCus8QgPqy/?utm_medium=tumblr
