Kimono Project

Half scale Silk Kimono. This project practiced my flat drafting and basic sewing skills, as well as my hand finishings.

Sound of Music - Liesl Dress

I was comissioned to make this dress, a replica from the "Sixteen going on seventeen" scene from The Sound of Music film. Due to the budget I was given to make this in, I was unable to use my preferred choice of fabrics, however I believe that the fabric I did use works well in it's place. I constructed the dress using a mixture of flat drafting for the skirts, sleeves, and pleated bodice, and stand cutting for the bodice lining.

Superheroes

In this project, I designed and made 3 superhero costumes for characters that I created myself. The two green costumes are for characters who can speed up and slow down time, so I decided to show this by using a mixture of futuristic and historical influence in their costumes. I gave one a futuristic top and 18th century inspired skirt, and the other an 18th century inspired, boned bodice and a futuristic skirt. The third character can reflect powers so I decided to use a lot of reflective and metallic fabrics for her asymmetric bodice, skirt, cape and leggings. All were constructed on the stand.

Two Cocktail Dresses

These are two cocktail dresses that I made for an event for myself and a friend. Both were constructed on the stand, and then fitted to the wearer.
