Christoria Creations - Angela Thompson
|
Christoria Creations has evolved from the vivid and precocious imagination of it's creator, curator, amateur gizmologist, fabricologist, textilier and time travelling imaginator, Ms. Angela D. Thompson.
Angela's early beginnings were shaped, moulded and formed by her family's adoration of antiques, which became their thriving business for the past 50 years. In hindsight, this informal education of trends, lifestyles and industry of all eras, especially the Victorian era, lit the fire when Angela first stumbled upon Steampunk. You can see these influences in some of her creations. She pays special attention to detail, often incorporating authentic antique pieces into each creation thus making each item an original piece. Ms. Angela explores all corners of her ever-expanding imagination to create a variety of Steampunk items including, clothing, hats, shoes, canes, jewellery, purses, bow ties, ascots, vests, goggles, bustles and so much more. |

Lady Offredi - Ashley-Ann Offredi
|
I've been sewing costumes since i was 16. The first dress I made was for a kids version of Shakespeare's "Much Ado About Nothing" and I made a green and white empire waist dress. I was so proud of myself. My sewing evolved into Steampunk because I love the Victorian era, love the grit of it and the imagination of the people of that time. There was nothing that couldn't be invented so I started to bring that imagination to earlier time periods as well. It helps put a little of me, and what Steampunk means to me, into the brand of my clothing. I think you can see that reflected a little in my work. |

The Grand Design - Carol Grand-Cowan
|
Carol has always had a love of collecting rocks and minerals, nature’s own works of art. She began using them to create one of a kind “Healing Fashion” jewelry more than 15 years ago. Then, several years ago, she found her greatest passion when she discovered Steampunk. A cosplayer for over 20 years she began making unique Steampunk jewelry as accessories for her costumes but soon discovered that she had more jewelry than costumes. She than began selling some of her creations at sci-fi conventions and art shows along with her Healing Fashion jewelry. Soon steampunk took over a large part of her wearable art. Lately she has begun combining these two passions by incorporating gemstones into her steampunk designs. She has also recently added feathered hatbands to her line of steampunk creations.

Trusham's Millinery - Chris Rose, Brian Chiasson
Trusham's Millinery (pronounced Troo-shum) follows the traditional definition of a Milliner, which is so much more than just hats! I offer custom Historical and Fantasy costuming, modern sewing & alterations, hats & fascinators, as well as accessories of all sorts!
I am a seamstress, working mainly with costuming and flat pattern millinery. I've been sewing most of my life, which is a very long time! ;) My personal interests are primarily with the Victorian & Edwardian Aesthetic, but that doesn't limit the scope of the work I enjoy. I'm involved in a few different genres of cosplay including Steampunk, Renaissance and Harry Potter. My son, Brian, helps manage the vendor table for me at shows but more importantly he helps to keep me sane when I'm working on custom orders or stock pieces in the 11th hour! I couldn't do all that I do without him!
