Lagana brings her artist's eye to doll costuming. She loves the drama of a good design completed with just the right accent. . . . an antique piece, a flower, a toy. Texture, fabric, color, & design should be rich but never overpower the doll. Cheap looking lace kills an outfit. Only the most delicate laces complement a doll. Proportions should be exquisitely correct. Lagana keeps a collection of laces & fabrics (from old silk dress etc) to complete each design with just the right touch. Tailoring, stitching and sewing details are vital: No raw edges hems, velcro fastenings, folds or puffs where there should be sewn seams or darts! Lagana uses beads & crocheted loop fasteners where possible for a closer fit and backs of outfits that are as attractive as fronts. Her aim for each costume is that wonderful sigh of delight when every element makes the whole stunningly beautiful! Lagana loves to create custom doll costumes, both reproduction as well as her own designs. |
