Princely dresses, theatrical costumes, but also pop and original elements: de Lunéville crochet allows you to enrich your garments with unique details. Jelena Saveljeva is an expert on the subject: she studied at the embroidery atelier that works for the British royal family, and then founded her own school. In this online course he will show you the basics of embroidery with this particular crochet hook, but also some tricks and secrets useful for those who already have experience.
The Lunéville crochet is a particular needle with a wooden handle, which became widespread in France around the 1800s. It allows you to simply embroider with thread or insert different types of crystals, beads and sequins, transforming any item of clothing or accessory into a precious jewel.

A course by Jelena Saveljeva
Jelena Saveljeva began her education at the Lesage school in Paris, owned by Chanel and Hand and Lock in London, an embroidery atelier working for the army and the royal family. In 2018, she won a Swarovski contest that gave her access to the Swarovski archives that are closed to the public. In 2018 I opened the Haute Couture Embroidery School with the aim of preserving and handing down these centuries-old manual techniques, revisited in a modern and creative key.
