The past two weeks i have spent toiling. I originally started toiling my trench coat which i imagined in suede however it was proving difficult and as i hadnt soucred leather sponsorship yet decided to leave it to a later date when i had gotten back into the swing of making and fingers crossed could get a good deal on the leather cost.
So after speaking to alison we settled on a stark white cotton wrap around dress i had designed and started to toile that. It is going well so far im being able to realise my design im am just worried it is turning out to literall to the concept. To much roman/grecian/toga looking. But i dont think i will know until it is totally made up. I am hoping i can make it a believable garment but if not i have planned on making more garments then nessacery so that i can rejcet those that arnt working.
Im using a combination of pattern cutting and working around the stand as i feel that works best. As i am making though i am realising i need to be maticulous with measurements and order of make because if i do one step to early i cant construct the rest of the dress.
