Work In Progress: Reproduction Victorian Maiden Regimental Stripe Skirt
Well, that was certainly a mouthful.Hi everyone. Here's a quick update of the first skirt among Clair's commissions. It will be short because... erm... I really don't know what to say at the moment. ^_^"
The skirt I am meant to imitate.
The first phase: the main skirt.
Side view. See all that extra cloth/ we'll get around to that.
Oh, and ignore the foot.
A quarter-back view.
Excess/train brought to front.
Sari-mode.
The second phase: the over-sized hem.
In sepia and B&W, because we want to be artsy for no particular purpose at all.
Sunlit skirt... and time for me to head for bed.
Kitteh for good measure. :)
That's a really pretty skirt. I remembered animes and Japanese street fashion too.
ReplyDeleteThanks, jeg! It is a lolita skirt, after all. :)
ReplyDeletejonette! <3<3<3
ReplyDeleteit's turning out beautifully, methinks :) someday soon i will wear it :) i can't wait!
so when do we meet? :D
@Clair awuuu, I think your striped skirt is now ronery in your closet because it has no petticoat. :'( Must finish the petticoat agad!
ReplyDeletehello, I was directed here by clair's blog (http://clair.craftyneko.com/tag/petticoats/). I was looking for petticoats. Do you make them? How much? Or would you know where I can get RTW? I would need for a 1960's ala-Hairspray costume party. Many thanks!
ReplyDeleteBTW, you have great works. I think the VM inspired shirt is great and has slimming effects. =)
Hi JAE!
ReplyDeleteWell, I do make them, and the price is... available upon request. ^_^" (read: let's talk about it in private.) As for the Ready-To-Wear pettis, well, that depends. Perhaps you can ask at certain bridal shops you know, or I think you can also order for one on some websites. How soon will your 60's party be? :)
