Patte is an actress, singer, voice talent and costume designer, specializing in, pretty much anything you can imagine. Her biggest influence is Bob Mackie whose costumes she saw on The Carol Burnette Show every week since she was little and as a result, has a pathological passion for rhinestones, sequins and feathers, so it's no surprise she's now making costumes primarily for burlesque performers and drag queens! Patte has also worked in television and has credit for a very special coat worn by Luba Goy of the Royal Canadian Air Farce.
Patte's latest and greatest achievement is a brand new, magnificent ensemble, covered in 40,000 Swarovski crystal rhinestones and 36 feet of heavy ostrich feather boa, for Miss Mitzy Cream to wear in her new number at the Toronto Burlesque Festival! (July 11-13 at the Gladstone Hotel in Toronto)
For Mardi Bras, Patte has designed and created this completely new and original pair of pink ribbon rhinestone pasties for our silent auction! (c'mon, secretly we've all wanted to try doing the twirl) Her very generous gift includes bottles of spirit gum, spirit gum remover, and a DVD of twirl instructions, so the lucky winner of these little beauties will be able to stick them on, twirl them, and then remove them again!!
You can't really tell from the photo, but when the light hits them, they sparkle like crazy! And the nude background fabric underneath those rhinestones make the pasties blend into the wearer's skin.
Thank you so much Patte Rosebank!
