Three months of planning later, we finally found ourselves at the medieval themed big w***hender of Eleanor’s dreams 🏰
I made several medieval themed outfits for the weekend, including the hen’s, although I’ll leave her to unveil that one herself.
For our first night, a very boozy banquet in a medieval monastery, I knew I had to show out for my girl. Eleanor was the official Baroness of the evening, so naturally, as her maid of honour, right hand woman and entertainment maven, I dressed as her court jester.
The blouse was completely self drafted using everything I learnt on my brilliant Fabric Godmother course with Geri Li - Pattern Wiz. That’s something I would have been terrified to attempt before, so I’m incredibly proud of how it turned out.
My rule with fancy dress is always to make something I’ll genuinely wear again, and this blouse absolutely fits the bill. The homemade cap, complete with fully functioning bells, may be slightly harder to work into my everyday wardrobe.
There are more outfits to come and I cannot wait to share them. Until then, congratulations, w***h, to my dear sister and best friend in the world.
Be honest: would you wear the jester blouse in real life? And should I make the bells part of my everyday look?
