my out of style is coming back...im bored but im excited

so as requested...here are some of the things i have worked on over the past two years...
designed, drafted, sewen - this coat was made for a project we did with The Bay, the theme of the collection was Baroque Pirates...my coat along with 9 others got selected to be part of an event at the bay downtown in september...more information about that will come later...if you wanna buy it its about $600...i cant remember exactly...made of cashmere and mohair and wool i think...its at school so i have no clue!
designed, drafted, sewen - this dress was designed for a project with a local store Ms. Coquette...it actually got chosen to be sold in the store as well...so if you want it it's a size 6 and about $250...buttons and beads circle the dress just under the breasts...the maniquin was to big for the dress...
designed, drafted, sewen - this is a sweat top i made for my brother...nothing special...
designed, drafted, sewen - this is a running vest that we made for a project with Sugoi...its got inseam pockets, a mesh back, and reflectors...
sewen - this was my grad dress...i used a pre-existing pattern and then messed around with it until i got what i wanted...the front is all beaded by hand - by me - and i designed the pattern for that as well...

designed, drafted, sewen - this is my super hot bathing suit...thats very breast and ass crack exposing...the machines used to sew this were really hard so its not sewen at its best...but i love the colours...

designed, sewen - for this project we had to take a pre-existing garment and mess around with it in the style of our favorite designer while adding bits of our own...i chose a trench coat, Burberry, and a mix of punk and preppy elements...

designed, drafted, sewen - this was a winter jacket i made...it looks like a vest though because the sleeves are made of different material...i actually took the design of my aunts jacket and kinda copied it while changing it...its lined with fleece and is really warm...
the greatest outfit i have ever made i dont even have...i made it for my friend...hunchak...and i never took a picture of them other then this one of the embroidery i did on the back pocket of his pants...i made him these orgasmic gray cord pants and a hunter green vest...i did such a good job i wish i could have kept them...

the cord pants had blue plaid pocket bags (because plaid and cord are his favs) and this plaid detailing on the inside of the wasteband...the green vest was quilted and had fleece lining with his initials embroidered on the inside...i did such a good job on them...im mad i dont have them! hunchak if you read this...i need my clothes back so i can take pictures!!!

and that is it...for now...as i create i will take pictures and post them!
