Mint green duet dreams 🩵

This super pretty duet was commissioned a while ago and isn’t needed till after summer but with August comps coming in quickly I need to get a move on with bookings!🩵✨🩵

These costumes are for two beautiful little dancers! A mint green base all lined for comfort with matching mesh high to low half skirt, a drape cowl back and mesh sweetheart neckline. Covered in beaded pearl and crystal lace and finished with thousands of ab reflective stones! ✨🩵✨

These costumes were an example of how things don’t always go to plan first time and I dreadfully underestimated the amount of stretch that this beautiful bridal beaded lace would take from the Lycra once finished. So yes I made these two costumes TWICE! 🙈 (you live and you LEARN!) - and you don’t make the same mistakes again, or hope you won’t at least! But they’re ready to dance now and will be sure to sparkle on stage! ✨✨✨

Gorgeous new solo costume for little miss Jorgie! ❤️🔥❤️

We took inspiration from a couple ideas and went with a deep red, insert panel of mesh in the centre, open back with binding and feather boa on the back! ❤️
All double lined for extra comfort and room for growth in the sizing! Binding hair piece with feathers to match, ostrich boa for extra glamour and excitement and covered in a couple thousand crystals in both light Siam and sunshine gold! ❤️✨❤️✨
Thank you as always to this dancer and her mum for their trust in me for creating this, I’m always so grateful when customers give their trust in designs, exciting and terrifying at the same time to constantly produce something unique and brand new! ❤️

Perfectly unique and delicate 💜🤍💜

This new contemporary costume has so many elements that make it so special. We went through a few colour options, but honestly nothing is as pure and innocent as white, and smooth white velvet is the most luxurious of course. The design is a deep sweetheart curve into the shoulder bones and an extremely low open V cut back. The base is made up of white velvet and Alicante mesh for the cut outs, back and sleeves. The top has a fully hand pleated, gathered effect (which took some figuring out and a very trusting dancer and mum!) - and the whole border is finished with a double layer mesh ruffle frill trim to add a delicate and individual touch 🤍🫶🏼

Decorated with a teardrop crystal stone in the centre of the heart (chosen by Miah specifically), and then covered in superior cut opal ab crystals, which reflect pearl and clear crystal colours under the lights. A matching hairpiece to finish around the bun, and this costume is ready for the weekend 💜🤍💜 I can’t wait to watch you on stage Miah, thank you for trusting me with yet another of your special costumes, I just adore creating for you! 🫶🏼

The sweetest pink lyrical for your Sunday 🫶🏼🩷🫶🏼

Another tiny custom for competition this month, and another first ever solo costume this time for little Alicia 🩷
I was left with almost free design choice for this one other than the desire for it to be pink! 🩰

I opened out the neckline and inserted an asymmetrical mesh diagonal with a fully covered mesh back for comfort for the young dancer and interest in the design. I did a double layer high to low skirt, full circle for extra movement and fully lined the leotard for extra coverage.

The beaded pink lace of sequins, pearls and glass ovals fits perfectly with the shade of pink and I think this costume is just perfect for a little dancer 🩷 I covered this costume in light pink crystals and deep rose to highlight the shades in the lace too! Creating for little dancers is always such a joy especially when you get to see them receive it 🫶🏼🩷

The most beautiful baby blue custom (teeny tiny little custom!) 🩵✨

This little dancer knew what she wanted and this pale ice blue Lycra and mesh was made especially for her. The silhouette, drape and half skirt was all chosen by her and it’s all combined beautifully. I chose the lace with a mix of gold and pale blue, all just originally embroidered and they I covered it in lots and lots of crystals!

I’m really not confident in new designs (ever)! but trusted by some lovely dance mums to create and work out as I go for something special and unique! The drape is pleated and hung over an open back and I made 2 circle skirts then cascaded the waterfall style lifting it at the front for a natural drop over to the back. Covered in pale sapphire, transparent ab and dream sunshine sky crystals this one really sparkles! Mainly because of how packed it is with stones since the main desire was “sparkle”! ✨✨🫶🏼

I’m so pleased you love it Jorgie! You look amazing!! 🩵✨🩵

Some VERY special costumes for the new group of Elysian Ambassadors for 2024! 🩰💜

I’ve not sponsored any group costumes since DWC in 2023 but this little group of ballet dreams are so very deserving! Trained by 🫶🏼
- this group will compete for the 2024 season and have all been chosen to be ambassadors for Elysian due to their dedication, talent and passion for dance!

Pink is always a huge request for young ballerinas but I wanted to make it more eye catching, so I layered a 3 tone ombre skirt, all hand dyed individually from petal pink to peony. The matching boys version has mesh trousers and top to compliment the sweetheart leotard for the girls dresses.

All of the costumes have been covered in hundreds and hundreds of crystals in pale pink and transparent ab for extra sparkle! I added crystals to the hairpieces to go around their buns and make this dance even more magical! 🩰🫶🏼🌸

Our Ambassador Dancers are :

Thank you to their school for the amazing training, their parents for their commitment to their children’s dancing schedules, and most importantly thank you to these dancers for inspiring me to create these costumes, I am honoured to have you all representing Elysian!! 💜

The most angelic of costumes 🪽🤍🪽
This beautiful white custom lyrical for turned out so elegantly and I absolutely love it! It’s also a very special one as it’s the first I’ve made in this new house 🫶🏼🤍🫶🏼

We loved the shape of the classic Grishko leotard so I took inspiration from that and made a custom version with a lower open back and slightly curved set princess seamed front to compliment the height of the skirt contouring in. I added a waterfall double layer half circle skirt that falls longer to the back and lifts at the front to elongate the leg line. A heavy weight matte lycra fully lined and matching white mesh with skin tone insert and off the shoulder mesh sleeves (which float like little wings on the arms 🪽). I covered the body in white iridescent glitter lace and then added well over 1,000 stones mixed of clear silver and transparent ab for sparkle. Finished with delicate white feather hair pieces to complete the costume 🪽

I’m so glad you love it Olivia, it was truly a pleasure to make your first custom costume, thank you for trusting me to bring your ideas to life, I can’t wait to watch you dance! 🤍🫶🏼🪽

A perfect white and gold tutu to begin your weekend 🤍✨🤍

I had free choice of design on this custom for .x and I love how it’s turned out! 🤍 she will wear it for this weekends competiting with

Dancing Don Q I knew I wanted white and gold and she is using a white lace fan to complete the outfit too. I started with a heavy weight matte white Lycra, fully lined and double princess seams on the front with a centre point back basque as well for more shape and a small skin tone insert on the front for a more mature look. A 9 layer fully pleated and hooped skirt mixing Italian and Oz net for longevity. I really wanted to use this gold diamond tulle again and I’m so pleased I chose the multi petal plate as it’s finished it off beautifully. I used meters of gold glitter lace all rearranged to frame the design, and decorated with transparent ab crystals. Louise chose a gold and pearl tiara to compliment her tutu and I’m so excited to watch her dance in it for the first time this weekend! 🤍

I hope you love it Louise thank you for trusting me to do what I had visioned for you! 🤍✨🤍

I absolutely love creating costumes for variations and this one is so elegant and sweet! 💙🤍💙
This little graduation ball dress is for .eda to wear for the this weekend!

I used a heavy weight white matte Lycra and fully lined for comfort, a sweetheart neck with thick strap onto the back, and pulled it into a gathered low centre back. The sleeves and top layer of the skirt are chiffon and I elasticated the sleeve a couple inches up so that the frill just falls over her arms delicately. The skirt is a mix of romantic hexagon net with Italian classical net so that the layers don’t get caught up in the legs when turning. Finished with accents of blue on the waistband and the bows to bring the whole character together!

I hope you love it Mia, it suits your personality so much and I’m so excited to see you dance in it on stage this weekend! 💙🫶🏼💙

Sapphire blue dreams 💙✨💙

This little lyrical debuted for the first time last night in national final! Worn by Team Scotland Captain Miah who trains with 💙

I patterned this from a leotard base, changed to a gathered one shoulder in mesh and double layer binding strap. Added 3 open back straps across the back with two clasps for ease of fitting on and off, and a double layer half skirt for movement. Covered in thousands and thousands of stones including large teardrop AB, crystal AB and deep blue sapphire! 💙✨💙

I was asked to make this for Miah after making her a couple of other costumes this year and would like to thank her teacher for giving me free design choice to make this one very special for her! 💙

Miah danced a solo and then was joined by the rest of team Scotland to open the Saturday evening national finals in Blackpool last night, the song “This Is Me” was such a beautiful choice and I was so pleased I got to watch in person! 💙

This is YOU Miah 💙 - Elegant, Delicate and oh so Very Sparkly! ✨

A little update post heading into the new year that I might be slightly quiet on new designs as I have purchased my first house (or cottage to be more accurate!) 🏡 and so Elysian will be moving and I’ll need some time to relocate and set up the new costume room (of course I made sure to buy somewhere that could house tutus too!) 💜

A new start for 2024 and so the backgrounds of my photos will be changing also. I’ll still be working from where I am for a while until everything is ready in the cottage, but there will be a lot of exciting times to come! 💜

Thank you to everyone here for all of your support and love this year, I truly love being part of this sparkly little corner of the world! ✨💜✨

- Merry Christmas to you all, and a Very Happy New Year 💜
Elysian 💜

The most beautifully ethereal white romantic to finish off my customs for the year, this one is truly special! ✨🤍✨
This tutu is for who I’ve made for many times in the past, but this variation called for a specific style which we’ve made just modern enough whilst still keeping the traditional outline of the design.
A multi princess panel for the bodice with curved low back in a heavy weight white matte lycra for extra comfort and a pure white skirt of Italian net for volume. I added on an overlay of white chiffon to the skirt to control the weight and add a dream like quality when Ellie turns 🤍 I also added the cut away plate in the same Lycra as the bodice. The sleeves are a double layer French seam chiffon with Lycra overlay to continue the open line, skin tone insert on the bodice for the sweetheart shape and invisible straps with arm cuffs to so that everything is set and feeling secure for the dancer. I finished the decoration with gold glitter lace rearranged about a hundred times to cascade down the plate and then frame the skirt. Stones are a mixture of transparent ab and champagne crystal pink for warmth. ✨🤍✨
I absolutely love how this one turned out and I am so honoured you chose me to make for you again, Thank you for trusting me freely with the design Ellie, I’m so pleased you love it! 🤍👑🤍

Really lovely mint green custom finished off in time for Christmas!✨✨✨
This is a first tutu for and I was so glad to get it done for her in time for the holidays!

A mint green base with full pleated, tacked and hooped skirt. A plate of both matching Lycra and light green glitter lace shaped in petals. I chose this heavily beaded and sequin embroidered lace to decorate with, and whilst it’s a heavy trim it was the perfect match for this tutu. The stones are all transparent ab for extra sparkle and it’s completed with a matching tiara ✨👑

The cutest custom dress for a first solo! 🎀
We went round a couple ideas for this one and landed on a design that was sweet but still mature enough too!
A bright pink base with foil reflecting black Lycra and mesh. I added an open back, puff sleeves with cuff, open collar and some net under the circle skirt just for shape! 🩷🎀🖤
All finished with fuchsia pink and transparent ab crystals (lots of them!!) ✨✨✨ And matching hair accessories too! 🩷🖤
Can’t wait to see it on stage! 🎀 .dancewear
