IBECAUSE
DOI CAN

Walking down the street,
dressed in her finest chainmail, the intriguing Miss E cuts
an impressive figure. At 6’0”, she already more statuesque
than most ladies, but reaching a staggering 7’4”, in her
signature mohawk and platform boots, she is a truly
formidable figure. Combined with her one-of-a-kind,
richly detailed, accessory-driven outfits, she becomes a
force to behold.
Even when Miss E is donning more “casual clothing,”
she is dressed up more than most people do for fancy
occasions or even Halloween. Why? Because style is her
passion and she holds it to no standard or limitation.
Miss E is the owner of Party Corner, a costume shop in
Guelph, Ontario, which designs both custom costumes
and houses thousands of off-the-rack pieces – anything
and everything from Sexy Spongebob to Giant Hot Dog
to Deluxe Darth Vader. In her “spare time”, she engages
in what she calls “rogue sewing” with fellow seamstress
“Scary” Kerri (@blackorchiddesignsdotca), who owns the
clothing and accessories shop Black Orchid Designs in
Cambridge, Ontario.
As a team, they call themselves “Satan’s Seamtresses”,
having thrown patterns out the window long ago and
are now constantly conspiring to create “all manner
of crazy things”. They specialize in one-of-a-kind,
