So today we try draping!

Yesterday I got in my box of random silk and chiffon that I had ordered. I thought that I would work with the silks first, but after sorting through them I decided I really wanted to try doing something drapey. Since Momarrazzi is out helping her HTH today you will have to make do with the timer photos.


Ok, so you can't see any of the detail at all in this picture. Oh well, hopefully I'll post more photos later.
For once, this is an intentional design detail! Actually planned, if you can imagine that. Again, there is much detail that you just can't see. I'm going to have to fire this photographer!
The Momarrazzi Returns!

Here is a closeup of the front, you can see the draping a bit better.

Here's the side of the back where the closure of the chiffon is.

Here is the back, showing a bit of the detail

Oh, and this shot shows the skirt that I made while waiting for the return of the momarrazzi. So I did get to use the silk after all!

I love the chiffon top! More pics of the skirt possible? The top must feel like butter!

The top is pretty comfy, but it is lined so you don't really feel the chiffon wearing it, which is probably a shame. I didn't really get too many good pictures of the skirt because we were concentrating on the shirt.
