Rococo Garment update


On the bodice I have added the stomacher and the trim, the stomacher is hand painted and embroidered.


All the trim has been pleated, mainly box pleated.


The sleeves have also been pleated

I can see there is still lots to do, I have a little more than 3 weeks to finish this and once it has been marked I will try and find a place to have a photo shoot so you can see the finished product. :)

Rococo garments update


Here it is, I have put together the skirt and bodice. Now the embellishments and finishing, there is lots to do.
This is the skirt so far, more to come.

The printing I had to do on the hem, and hopefully it will still be seen after all the box pleating is done.


More to come soon :)

The Rococo bodice

I have been working on the Rococo gown and forgot to up date my progress. At my next fitting I will bring the real camera and take some decent photos.
So here is where I am at;
I have cut out and put together the bodice, I have also started on the large amount of trim box pleating that has to be done.
The Skirt is still to be printed and sewn together completely, the stomacher is also to be printed and embroidered.
The Colours came out a bit lighter than expected but it is growing on me, and with the embroidery done there will be more texture.

More images to come soon :)
