OUTFIT 5IVE - TOILE

Outfit 4 final completed and now working on toile for outfit 5, so many pieces so many PLEATS.






 The shape turned out exactly how I wanted, which is great news means no more alterations and can start off making the final of this outfit. The pleats were done in  the actual fabrics to help decide how the pleats would actually sit. In your toile your supposed to use a cheaper alternative to the actual fabrics to manage costs. But since I had a lot of this fabric it wasn't a problem in this instance.

OUTF1T THRE33 -FINAL MAKE

Today I worked with the Sewing Technician Slyvia to work on my Third Final Garment, the mock up of this can be seen in my older blog posts. This Garment was a very tricky one to achieve, even though I made the mock up I was still unsure what fabric's to use for my final design..
Instead of having two fabric's I now have Four, I also decided to have Leather Sleeve's..So cool!!!.
And so Exciting...



 




So far... half of the garment is completed and I can already recognise that my choice of fabrics work amazingly well together...  SO SO SO HAPPY WITH THE RESULT.... Would love feedback on what people think of my work.. :)
