Farm Girl

I know I haven't posted anything new for a while but I am trying to start blogging again.

I finished up my 6th quarter in school and made the following garments for my final.

I was inspired by 1920's 1930's American or European Farm Women.

The hood was made of lace and inspired by head scarves the women wore. 

The exaggerated pockets were made by hand, I cut different squares of fabrics to get the quilting affect.

I made a light pink Bandeau top yesterday. I sewed creme lace on top of it and added a fake sweet pea flower to embellish it. 

I feel like I'm starting to develop my own style as a designer. 

whimsical, bohemian, girly, romantic, free spirited are things to describe the feel of my design style. 

Enjoy!
