Bombshell Revival Designs will once again be appearing at Ottawa Geek Market at this end of this month. I will be bringing a smorgasbord of wearable art, costuming, hats and headpieces to delight and tempt all of the geeks, fantasy, sci-fi and steampunk lovers and fellow weirdos.
For more information on location, tickets, exhibitors and what other wild and wonderful goings on to expect, see below. Hope to see you there!

This upcycled denim jacket has been titled After The Glitter Fades because it was inspired by my favourite song by Stevie Nicks (the goddess of rock and roll!) of the same name.
Sections of a tiered skirt, some tassel trim, pearls, crystals and tea dyed embellished lace appliques were blended with the denim jacket. A Fornasetti inspired collage image has been placed on the back of the jacket to give a face to the lady in the song. My overall vision was to give the finished piece the feeling of a blending of various parts of the tattered remnants of the costuming and wardrobe of an aged, yet still elegant showgirl or film starlet of a bygone era.
Imagine the stories she could share….
This lovely has been named Clarabelle. It is a small bonnet style hat or fascinator that would add that finishing touch to any steampunk or Victorian inspired outfit.
The base is a cream coloured felt like material and the hat form has been accented with a vintage velvet flower with leaves, ribbon, braid, tulle, feathers, gears, watch hands and amber hued flat back crystals. The bonnet attaches to ones hair with two sturdy and secure clips on the underside of the hat’s brim.
Tea and scones anyone?
