Last Tuesday I modelled two of my costumes for a photo shoot – it took place at beautiful Belsay Hall in Northumberland UK.  

The pictures have been used to advertise English Heritage’s ‘Fashion from the Past’ which will take place as a number of costume events during the whole month of May this year.

My exciting Tudor Fashion Shows are to take place on the 5th, 6th and 7th May each day at 11a.m , 1 pm and 3pm.

From Tuesday 8th May until 27th May 2012 a number of my stunning 16th Century inspired costumes will be on display. It will include three of Henry VIII’s Queens  –  Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour and Catherine Howard.

Also included are my striking Orange Silk Masquerade Gown (in gallery below) and my new silver silk ‘Queen Jane Seymour Dress’ (pictured left).

There are also a number of exciting costumes events from different periods taking place.
