Last year Paula attended her first Gatsby Summer Afternoon for which she made her own period perfect outfit and assembled a dapper look for her husband.
Speaking of Gatsby Summer Afternoon, how’s the Art Deco ensemble coming along? Need some help?
Costumer Paula Dodd Aiello is your answer! With 50 years of experience sewing and designing Paula works magic creating head to toe looks for men, women, and children. She can start from scratch, with a pattern or without, or work with pieces to put together a period perfect Gatsby Summer Afternoon look. She can even repair or re-purpose a beloved vintage this or that. (Side note: Paula remade a vintage silk blouse for me. It was a favorite of mine but fragile and beyond repair. She was able to recreate it and it’s become a staple in my wardrobe.)
Paula’s love of sewing began as a child making clothes for her Barbie. When in high school, she made all her mother’s dresses and later her son’s Halloween costumes. Eventually Paula began designing for theater productions, working in periods from Elizabethan to Victorian to modern. She can do it all!
Do you have an idea but not the sewing skills? Has your planned outfit gone amiss? (I can relate to that.) Need something for the kids?
Give Paula a ring. There’s just enough time!
