Summer 2019 Collection

It's almost that time again! I've been working on a collection of casual and chic separates for weekend getaways, entertaining at home or just plain wearing to feel good about yourself! I've been inspired by the beach pajamas of the 1930s. In that era they wore colorful, flowy ensembles paired with sandals and a straw hat. Here are some photos from that time frame.

I'll be hosting a trunk show and sale at my home in Redlands on Wednesday, June 19 from 11-4. Email me at lmsandstedt@gmail.com for more information or to book a private showing. I've also reopened my Etsy store and you can see my latest work from this link:  Lorimarsha on Etsy








Even though your travel plans may not include the Cote D'Azur, there's no reason not to be comfortable and chic-- even at home!

I sourced vintage cold rayon from the 1940s to create designs having that colorful, breezy aesthetic. Some come in sets and others are separates. This is the first time that I've made pants, so it's always fun to try something new. I also incorporated self-made interfacing and piping to add some pop.










Another piece of the collection are the pants I designed from a mix of vintage textiles. I especially love them to be colorful and somewhat quirky. They are drawstring waist to fit a variety of sizes. Here's me wearing my own pair.





With temps hitting near 100 degrees today, there's nothing better than dressing cool, comfortable and chic.
