Using a strip of black venice lace that has a intricately interresting structure for finishing the trailing hemline of the brocade inset piece, mirroring the Gothic cape’s window-like design with a scaled repetitive reflection.
Fashioning Slits | Production |
Fastening fabric and facing towards the Red Shirt‘s front vents is ideally done at this stage, right before starting to attach the lining.
The Slanted Jacket | Technics |
Devoid of side-seams, the fabric to be used for this waist-jacket will have it’s weft aligned with the (missing) sideline, making it fall in partial bias towards the front and central-back-seam, exhibiting, with an appropriate choice of fiber, a sideways diverging look.
More perceptible, however, might be the extravagant hemline presented by both body and sleeves, traversing downwards in a motion concave in the front, yet ending cuspy in the back.
Adorning this effect, while supplying a sense of changeability are the invisible zippers mounted in the jacket’s sleeves, going up all the way through the shoulder-line, making them, just like the jacket itself, able to be worn open or closed.
Adding Interfacing | Production |
“Experimental approach” made me understand I had to apply strips of fusible interfacing on both sides of all of the bias-cut seams within the “Mystery Project” if I wished to continue working on them, as not doing so gave the seams free roam to stretch during all further craft-ship, which could only have resulted in an unbecoming indolence and terribly crooked stitchings throughout the project.
