love love love it!!!  the theme is great and i love how all the pieces look like they belong together. what college do you go to?  i'm looking for schools with good fashion design programs and it seems like you go to one.

its just a little college in the uk, small town called hinckley. it is known to be one of the best for diploma level though. im off to uni in september. going to uni for craetive arts in rochester, kent. i cant wait!!

that is so adorable! I freakin love it! I totally need a pattern book, I have NO idea how to even go about drafting my own, you did a fantastic job tho!

aww wow thats wicked hehe oo it feels really good to see somehting someone has made from my instrctions! well done it looks great! hope they wernt too confusing to follow! i looked at your other one too and i love it!

i used a leatherette, silver lycra, a blue kind of crepe fabric its really smooth and drapey and i used some silver quilting!

thanks, yer i did use a pattern. its one i drafted out of a winifred auldrich book. i did a tute on how to draft it out on a black and white stripey dress i posted up here about 2 weeks ago.

so i was bored on a friday night stuck in stanton, what better way to waste my time than to make a dress!

haha still got to use up all the fabrics i bought the other week so again its black and white.

I've gone for the simplistic look...









Was really easy to make, just changed the neck shapings on the black and white stripey dress, added some white piping and made a white tie belt to go around the waist. SIMPLE!

Also made another dress a few days ago

still needs finishing touches, going to have 6 buttons on the black center panel. white ones with a smaller black one in the middle. Ill have better pics when its done.

i love that!

yer i made the leggins myself, i drafted a close fitted trouser block out of the winifred aldridge pattern cutting book that we are given at college. once i had the block drawn out i creted a side seam that curved from the center back to the center front of the leg, but thats pretty difficult to do though. Once youve drafted a pattern for it though there so easy to sew. i just sewed ellastic in at the top.

the book is really great. its got everyting you need to start off your own patterns. once youve draftd whatever it is you want out of there its so easy to change the style shape and and new seams style lines etc.
