It’s no secret that here at Stonemountain & Daughter we have a lot of love for Lady McElroy—the collection is full of beautiful, unique fabrics imported directly from the United Kingdom, each one an absolute treasure! We love that Lady McElroy fabrics make our everyday wardrobe special, and we’re super excited to explore the collection for fabrics that will make our holiday wear extra-festive.
Party dresses get a lot of press, but we’re here to say that there are so many ways to get dressed up! For a change of pace, we’ll choose a special fabric for a beautiful statement top like a Nicks Blouse in pretty wool challis, and slinky stretch velvet for a Dartmouth Top or an Elysian Bodysuit. A statement top always looks great with a nice pair of jeans (check out our Lady McElroy Deegan for quality stretch denim in 18 fashion colors), a cute skirt, or whatever you prefer!
What to wear to the seasonal soiree? Shiny satin makes a gorgeous Saturday Skirt Set, and we love a rayon challis for a long, flowy Shelby Romper. Top off your ensemble with a cozy 1950s Stole in a loopy bouclé sweater knit—so fun and festive! Lady McElroy’s crisp cotton lawn is perfect for a stand-out one-piece like the Jo Jumpsuit or classic button-up like the Vernon. For a fun pop of pattern, choose your favorite Lady McElroy cotton lawn to make a unique necktie!
We can’t talk about Lady McElroy without mentioning the iconic Cobra Corsage! It’s an incredibly popular print, a perennial best-seller for us and a favorite among our community of sewists, season after season. We currently stock thirty-six versions of this gorgeous print in an assortment of colors and base cloths, so there truly is a Cobra Corsage for every occasion!
It’s that time of year again! If you’re doing some holiday shopping for the sewist in your life (or if your loved ones need a few ideas for you), a sewing bookmakes a wonderful gift! We’ve got some excellent ones in stock, like The Act of Sewing (perfect for getting started with garment sewing), Ahead of the Curve (with a focus on curvy and plus-sized patterns), Zero Waste Patterns(wrap it in a garment’s worth of fabric for zero-waste gift wrap), and more! Do you know what goes perfectly with a sewing book and is always a perfect fit? A Stonemountain & Daughter gift card, available in any amount!
