Sorry for such a long delay in posting on the lovely blog, been a bit mad had a few ideas and collection themes I’ve been working on.
I have taken a few pictures of the jacket in construction. At the moment it is pretty much just a shell, it still needs to be lined, have the collar added, hemmed, have a fastener attached and a few more bits.
Right well I since made a corset using some amazing leather and silk dupion. Making a corset is something ive wanted to do for a long time so was a really big achievement for me!
The construction of the corset quite simple, this particular one is plastic boned and not steeled, however she can really suck you in! It is fully lined with cotton as its leather and also have coutil for strength etc. I think I shall make a black leather one next.
As I mentioned I have been working on a new collection based around insects, all a bit hush hush at the mo, but keep watching this space for concept drawings.
Also you can now buy my work online at CatWalk Genius go check it out.
