Gold bullion mantle and jeweled tabard, shown on a dress form — not on a monarch.
Mardi Gras monarch dressing — original Ooh La La work for Carnival court and ball. Photographed on a dress form or a wall, never as a king or a queen. This is not a krewe’s copyrighted court gown. It is sewn here to the client's measurements. Custom color is included.
How we make it
Cut the mantle as a half-circle train. Bullion on canvas then mount. Dress form only in the photograph; the client wears it at the ball. Hidden stays at the shoulder.
