Corset Laced Mannequins ~ Amy and Jodie

Before I post proper I first must mention my GIVEAWAY as I'm aware that over the week, that post will sink to the bottom!  So to stand a chance of winning this beautiful display head.....
you must visit this post  CLM GIVEAWAY

Now that's out of the way I can get back to the job in hand which is to introduce two new Corset Laced Mannequins.  Actually Amy is not exactly new but more resurrected from the CLM past.  She is made using a Laura Ashley fabric called Kimono and looks stunning in the Cranberry colourway.  She's also available in Charcoal and Duck Egg.
you can see more photos at the CLM website

Jodie is tailored in an unusual embroidered linen fabric (at least unusual for one of my mannequins).  I think she is gorgeous with just enough detail on this lovely neutral shade.
My Cath Kidston bag looks rather yummy displayed on her too!
You can see more photos of Jodie on the CLM website.

The Corset Laced Mannequin Giveaway.....

....is here!
It's taken me a little bit longer than I had expected to do this, two years in fact, so when the second blogiversary came a week or so ago I decided that this would be a good time to do one.
I've been thinking hard about this one. I know alot of you ladies (and gents) out there sell at vintage fairs or just happen to love vintage stuff so I thoight something that might be useful and decorative for your stall or home.  I'd love to be able to offer up a vintage mannequin (or even a new one!) but for this giveaway I'm offering you a stunning, hand painted display head worth £105!



Isn't she beautiful! 

The rules!

  • open to UK Mainland residents only (sorry but international shipping is too costly)

  • to enter all you need to do is leave a comment on this post.  I would also love to know what commercially available fabric you would love to see tailored on one of my mannequins and the name you would give to the mannequin but this is not essential.

  • thats it!
The draw will take place next Friday 10th September at 10:00am

You never know...in a few weeks you might see your perfect mannequin for sale on the

Have a great weekend, Lucyxx

Coffee & Cream

More fab colour combinations from my seamless range of mannequins.  These beauties are destined for another Ollie & Nic store.  Their stores are located throughout the UK so if you ever pop into one you're sure to see one of my gal's.

I've spotted a few other coffee and cream combos on Etsy too...

Take care, Lucyxx

New stock at CLM and more to come....


















...two "new" mannequins, one a stunning Buste Girard of Paris c1910 and the other an equally gorgeous Proportion of London articulated mannequin c1990. You can see more photos at the

I'm working with some new fabrics and I hope to have some "new" vintage pieces added to the site very soon including this beautiful triple mirror, a decoupaged miniature & child mannequin, sparkling French chandeliers and some beautiful art work. 

but this will only be possible if I stop getting so many orders and enquiries!! I'm only kidding of course.  I'm very, very busy, rushed off my feet but I'm enjoying the thrill. 
And I haven't forgotten the giveaway.  I'm planning that one for this Friday when my little darlings are back at school.
see you soon, Lucyxx
