Marcella has been sewing since she was a young girl, so when she recently finished up with her full-time employer, it was an obvious step for her to go back to her first love – sewing. While she does custom orders for weddings, christenings and other events, she is releasing a range of pettiskirts as well. These are the first few skirts out of her home studio in Bella Vista in Sydney that I have had the honour of photographing for her website (currently under construction). You may recognise some of the models as my kids who were on loan for the day to help show off the skirts. The gorgeous red-headed child is Marcella’s gorgeous grandchild, Bethany – who I chased around with my camera, but didn’t get as many as I would have liked of her because she was not impressed with the whole idea!
Marcella will be taking custom orders – so do consider supporting an Australian small business for your next pettiskirt purchase. Until her website launches, you can email her at msmoreno@bigpond.com.
ETA: I received this message from Marcella after this post went up:
