The Greatest Gift
Saturday’s Primary Outfit
Authentically Dark Gothic, Saturday’s primary outfit consolidates around an enormous black cuir-satin cape, exhibiting front and rear arched windows stagnating up to the high standing collar, one revealing an alluring red-black mosaic, the other giving light to an artpiece on it’s own: a carmine silk shirt composed from bundles of graceful flow-lines.
Layering blending shades of red hair onto the cape are burgundy and maroon long-pelt shoulder-coverings sided by the wine-shaded traversing-layer haircut (itself suggestive to the shape of a sideways gothic window), all detracting from the cape’s collar, the ensemble’s main focal point.
Topping off the outfit is a fifteen-cornered tall-hat, towering in between backwards leaning horns able to pierce through congruous outlets in the sides of this from both satin and leather substance constructed headpiece.
Sampling Fabrics
Fitting
With its silk pieces assembled in baste, the Red Shirt construction is readily subjected to the test in order to check final adjustments to the fit, and when found faultless, the performed corrections are echoed onto the patterns so the process can move onwards to cutting corresponding pieces of lining, facing and interfacing.
Five Days of Horns
Getting back to the notion of incorporating different shapes of horns into each primary outfit for this year’s WGT festival, I made this sketch-up to depict the evolution of size and directional placement throughout the five days.
