End of week 4. Wow.

This morning I fixed up the muslin from yesterday and after looking at it and altering it for a good long bit, Edwin decided on some changes. It's really starting to look like the final product so I think the next muslin may just be the last. Then we can do that for 19 more looks. Also, the pattern we've been working on has only been for one piece of an ensemble. There are 2 other looks in the making that Edwin's been playing with so we'll see what happens. If I worked like he does I would've aced all my construction classes and made much more accurate garments. But again, I have no patience. I have decided, however, that I want to make a collection next year to apply what I'm learning. I hope it happens because that would be sweet.

After lunch, Edwin decided it was time to start the wedding dress that was being fitted onto the bride tomorrow. Compared to him, I don't procrastinate at all. We cut a bunch of layers of silk and I realized I love silk as a fabric and to use in garments because it's beautiful but I freakin' hate cutting it because it's so slippery and thin. I sewed some of the dress parts and tried to get as much done before 6 but Edwin had to work into the evening to get it ready for the fitting. I couldn't find a picture of the dress from one of Edwin's collections it's modeled after so you'll have to take my work for it that it's going to be beautiful. The silk is layered and looks really light like the bottom of this dress I found online.


On my way to the Central Station, I decided to take a picture of another Red Light Fashion window from And Beyond. She's also wearing a super cool hat but you can't really see it.


I also got the Italian Vogue a little while and it was super expensive. It was 11 Euros and it was in plastic with the other two Vogues. It was worth it though, look how beautiful it is :-)


And that is the end of work week 4 already. Graduation the end of the month. Sweet!
