I've wanted Christine Daaé's dressing gown for decades - now I finally have one!

In celebration of Phantom of the Opera's 40th anniversary, I have fulfilled a lifelong goal of becoming Christine Daaé. This project was a delicate labour of love, and was a fun challenge navigating tailoring, fabric, and various laces to make a costume inspired by the legendary Maria Björnson's designs.
