 Hello to all our fellow sewing enthusiasts, (sustainable-)fashion lovers, and creative minds!
We invite you to dive in, explore, and join the conversation by leaving your thoughts and reactions directly on our blog posts. Let's stitch together a community where ideas flow and creativity flourishes!  Our readers already know Elena Tran. She has a beautiful online fabric store and is recently selling handmade quality bags as well.
For MargaStyle she has written an article: Anti-ageing-tips-voor-na-je-50ste. It is on in English on her own website as well. Read her 8 tips to stay healthy ánd beautiful after 50!  So, suddenly there is a new trend: Barbie. Isn't that a joke? Well no, not a joke, because the film is a great success worldwide in other countries. And yes, that's where the whole marketing circus starts. And you can count on it that this will manifest itself especially in the fashion world, the fabrics and the sewing patterns. Is that bad? Well... if you like it, of course not. There are also elements that are fun to pick up, such as wearing hats, accessories and cheerful colors.
In this blog: who is Barbie, and why all the popularity?  MargaStyle is a re-newed website. It used to be a modelportfolio-website but it is now more than that. It is also about Marga's hatmaking (Millinery) and costume-making for photoshoots and special events.
It has a personal blog (NL) about modelwork, being a 50+ model, photography, tips, health & beauty and it will offer interesting blogs (EN) from Elena Tran. 
When I am asked what I want for my birthday or Mother's Day, the answer is always very simple: tools please! Those tools are not a rake for the garden, an extra washing-up brush in the shape of a flower, a pot, pan or vacuum cleaner bag, but a sewing accessory. After all, nothing makes a seamstress as happy as a magic tool such as a pair of luxurious scissors, a cute seam ripper or an extra roll with inches on it!
And then I got this:  The new Marfy sewing patterns for spring 2023 are online. We love the elegant clothes and illustrations. And.... we love the styling tips on the website!

Et maintenant: The Chanel catwalk for Autumn/Winter 2023/2024. We LOVE it and it is VERY Chanel in all details and looks!
Watch and enjoy: 
Last year, the fashion house CHANEL opened its fashion show with Charlotte Casiraghi, Prince Albert of Monaco's niece, riding her horse down the catwalk. Charlotte is a dressage rider and an ambassador for the fashion house. This playful action led to a lot of criticism because the animal welfare organizations said that a horse does not belong on the catwalk.
A few days ago, Stella McCarthy, fashion designer, vegan and animal lover par excellence, decided to do it completely differently. Horse-friendly and with a fashion message:
While we still have to prepare for Autumn and Winter, the models are already walking the catwalks for spring and summer. A time that still seems so far away. But we can certainly enjoy the beautiful show of Chanel and gain inspiration to get started ourselves.
 Oh HOW WE LOVE Chanel Vintage ! Do you want to join us? @ SewingChanelStyle on Pinterest -> Chanel Vintage ! Join our Pinterest Collection and help us to collect the most beautiful pictures ever! Together we will honor these wonderfull pictures forever !  
The CHANEL Fall-Winter 2022/23 Haute Couture collection by Virginie Viard.
Take a look at the show and enjoy!  They're back, or they've always been there but rather untraceable. There were questions on the Internet where to buy Marfy sewing patterns and no one knew the answer. Anyway, they're back! You can order Marfy sewing patterns again, directly through the Marfy website.
The website does not mention anything about a return or a temporary offline. A new blog has been added, informative but limited. In any case, the famous catalogues, the sewing patterns and the 'Evergreen collections' are for sale again. And the website also has FREE downloads.  Haute couture LATEX fashion is couture that consists of 100% latex. Beautiful creations are made with latex, but unfortunately most people have a different association with latex clothing. Namely: The sex industry and 'tacky' party clothing. Nothing is less true. Some latex-designers are creating Haute LATEX couture which is really couture and very chic!
 Remember beautiful Christy Turlington as the Chanel Model of the 80's? She was amazing and she still is! At the age of 53 years, she looks more radiant and natural than ever. Read the article: Vogue
