In this series I am showing how I made the Tucana costume. In this part I show you how to insert a zip into corset as invisibly as possible. Subscribe for couture sewing tutorials and inspiration. This costume has been commissioned by Michael Sollis as part of the Southern Sky Project and will be worn by burlesque performer Jazida.

Welcome to the world of Rockstars and Royalty. I’m Vicky. I have worked as a couture gown, corset and costume designer for over 20 years, initially under my label 'Devotion' in the UK, then as 'Rockstars and Royalty' when I moved to Australia in 2007. During this time I’ve become know for my elaborate couture gowns and costumes, my corsetry skills, and my love of sparkles and embellishments.

In my videos and tutorials I show you how I design and create the extravagant couture gowns, corsets and costumes that I've become known for, how I upcycle and style vintage and pre-loved clothes, and how I create accessories, hair, and make up to style and complete the looks.
