The Picnic Blanket

The Picnic Blanket

A distinct example of a work that came into existence for the lack in finding something suitable, the Picnic Blanket - previously referred to as the “mystery project” – was devised towards hightened sitting comfort as well as design quality.

Bolstered on a padded, impermeable base, the black velvet-brocade frame encovers the construction in which one of differently colored panels of the same cloth can be mounted by the use of attached velcro-strips, allowing a rotation cycle of main blanket colors every three years.

Longsleeve Undershirt

 The final of my undertakings for this year’s WGT festival will be the maroon raglan-cut undershirt seen in Saturday’s Secondary Outfit, adhering to the other pieces by omitting side-seams (skirt and jacket).

Raglan-cut Longsleeve

The jersey blouse is strongly tailored by decorative full-height darts, flawlessly merging into the connective seams effectuating an eight-piece bodice with three-piece sleeves, projecting a unique play of lines, familiarly paying homage to the Red Shirt, taking place as the corresponding layer for the day’s primary outfit.

 

 

Unique Experimentation

Shoulder piece conjunction prototype

Trying to find the ideal combination of inset seams to perfectly engulf the immensely difficult shoulder shape in a conjunction that would work well with pelt-like or heavy-weight materials and which can be easily rescaled in different sizes for creating multiple successive layers holding on to the same proportions.

The Rider Basque

Concocted to elongate the front of the Velvet Frock Coat, the rider’s basque is designed to provide sitting comfort whilst guarding the lap.

The Rider Belt Design

Giving an oriental touch, the belt’s frontal panels feature sets of downward curves, providing layered protection of the lap, whilst able to maneuver individually during traversal.

The same goes for the back panels, which cover solely the buttocks, causing no friction with the sitting-surface, yet having a regular coat-level split allowing them to maneuver freely. 

 

The beltpart itself is hightened towards the front center, producing a more armor-like appearance, together with the lenghtened side panels, providing the construction with a skirt-like span.

Drawing Patterns

The Slanted Jacket is basically a regular bolero-jacket with the fabric’s grain aligned with the sides and the functionality of the side-seams moved towards the front and back centers, which took a bit of prototyping before revealing a unique set of patterns that turned out looking quite unconventional indeed.
