I had often been looking into these buttons before but was always disenchanted by the brownish shine of the embedded stone, up until my latest trip when I, after careful inspection noticed there was a mat-grey variant enclosed within the same tube, which led to a somewhat more comprehensive selection process.
Considering these freshly arrived yards of elastic ruffle I ordered in for further accentuating the seam-play on the undershirt were an online purchase, the appearant color-match is truly remarkable.
Traversing fabric markets, checking discerning dealers for materials suiting the items on my mind, gathering ideas, samples and contacts sustaining future compositions while exploring a bit of Unique cityscape.
With the particular shade of green I envisioned to use for the shirt being so unfindable in a sturdy satin, I came to investigate the possibility of combining a beautifully textured yet slightly darker polyester-veil onto a common tafeta lining, and proceed to use them as a single material, portraying the perfect color with an unseen raw texture, exploiting the lower-layer’s rigor for forming the standing layers in the meanwhile.
