Welcome to my Life, "Please Come In"

Little fashionable me! As you can see I started to become aware of fashion at a very early age. I wish I had that little hat and coat today.



I love designing vintage inspired clothing. My signature line, "Vintage By Bonni Lanese" was born. I've always loved old movies, the glamour the wonderful fashions, hairstyles and also the home furnishings of the times. Sometimes I'm so engrossed in looking at all the backround etc. I forget to listen to the dialog of the movie.



Everyday I create something new. Sometimes it's just in my mind but will come to life eventually, and thank you for visiting me.

starting on a new project



I'll be designing and making a wonderful red fitted jacket for a customer. We have an appointment for the first fitting this week. I'm using a light weight wool twill, very nice. Keep you posted!!

back to work






A friend recently gave me her prom dress from the 1960's. I was inspired to refashion it into two little girl princes dresses for my little grand daughters. Julia age 2 & Kayla age 3. The original sweetiepies! These are their Christmas gifts so I can't have a picture of them until the new year.
