Tweetled Beetle Beanie
A few days ago I saw a black beetle scurrying in the earth among some wild violas. The contrast made everything very striking, so I decided to create Tweetle Beetle Beanie .
Wildly Vintage: your guide to unique style
Welcome to the Wildly Vintage blog, where we celebrate individuality and the art of one-of-a-kind fashion. Dive into our world of unique creations, design insights, and a passion for craftsmanship that sets you apart.
Brilliant one off beanies
The weather has turned on its head, so it's time to start dressing ours. The leaves have been falling for the last three weeks and now there's storms all over the United Kingdom. So I've been making beanies when I have an hour or two to sit quietly. They are all made with super chunky woolen yarn that still holds all its natural properties, so even when it gets wet it continues to keep you warm.
Crafting your unique style story
Here on the Wildly Vintage blog, we share the heart of our creations. Every piece is a journey, starting from a spark of inspiration – an idea, an observation, or a special request. We delve into the process of designing patterns, sourcing the perfect natural fibres, and the meticulous stitching that brings each unique garment and accessory to life. Forget uniform dressing; embrace fashion that truly reflects you. This is where we share the stories behind our exclusive items that you won't find anywhere else.
From fairy dresses to vintage lingerie dreams
Our blog is for those who cherish individuality and bespoke fashion. We frequently feature our alternative vintage dresses and accessories, often crafted on request, including enchanting "fairy meets vintage" designs. A significant passion shared here is the art of lingerie making, particularly pieces inspired by the elegance of 1940s and 1950s styles. We believe a truly magnificent outfit begins with its foundation, and our blog explores how to create these foundational pieces with our unique patterns and designs.
Our unique touch: colour, patchwork, and handcrafted textiles
What makes Wildly Vintage truly unique? Our blog offers an exclusive look into our creative process that you won't find elsewhere. We love playing with colour, often using opposite hues to create striking contrasts, or blending different shades within the same colour family for subtle elegance. Patchwork is a beloved technique, frequently incorporated into our designs. We also share our passion for textile artistry by hand-dyeing our own fabrics and, when the mood strikes, hand-printing our custom patterns. Discover how these distinct elements come together to create pieces that are familiar yet utterly original.
