WMW - green & black outfit

[Lilly420]

I find it kind of fun sometimes to show off my work as I go. Keeps me motivated! I'm looking at getting this whole deal done by Saturday for the DGN birthday trip to City Club. Let me know what you think - pointers are wonderfully appreciated!

Idea:

Finished so far:

Armwarmers still need lace

To Do:

Skirt - Material cut, lace sewn on, must ruffle and sew together (that's the hard part D:)

Shirt - Must assemble & add lace/ribbon

Armwarmers - Need to add lace

Leg warmers - Have pattern & material

Hair dreads - DONE!

Looks cute. I like the picture you made in paint too:) Homemade outfits are the best!

Great job!!

[Lilly420]

Thanks! The skirt is coming along nicely. The only issue is that I am unsure as to what to do about the zipper I want to add to it @_@

As for the shirt, I have no idea what to do. I bought a cheap black tank top and I have eyelets that I can use. But I'm not sure if I want the front to be open and lace up or if I want the laces to just be a decoration. In my current body type, I think that it might look better as a decoration lol.

I like it. I hope you post some pictures when it is done, so we can see the finished product.

This is the long, lacy back of the skirt. I have the front and waistband done as well, but I'm still unsure as to how to add them all together and fit in the zipper xD If there are any seamstresses that have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them!

I'll totally be adding pics when it's all done ;3

Wow , lot of work! Cute and I like how you have it all broken down in sections / planned.

Whaa? No hair lights? *stomps foot*

Helps me pick you out over the sensory barrage (seriously) lol.

I know there are several sewing-savvy people lurking around *looks around*.

(good thing i read subtitles... WMW! =D)

[Lilly420]

Oh, there will be hair lights *evil cackle*

I just couldn't figure out how to draw them xD

Also:

Armwarmers = lacy-fied!

[Lilly420]

Leg warmers! Still need to add the lace @_@

[Lilly420]

Uggghhh ok, I'm stumped and running out of time! The skirt is in 4 parts and I have NO idea how to proceed @_@ Here are pics of the parts, maybe someone here has a suggestion?

- zipper

- Waistband

- front skirt

- back ruffled skirt

Do I just sew them all to the waistband in a big circle and then cut a vertical slit to sew in the zipper? Or is there a more intelligent way to go about this?

Needle breakage within the last foot of sewing. Nooooooooo!

[Lilly420]

D: just got back from the store. That was awful... Stupid needle!

Just pinned together currently. For those of you who like kitties, look at the bottom left corner. Also, don't look at our messy apt. >.> crafty time means Lilly doesn't clean anything... >.<

It's not letting me post the pic link, so I've attached it instead.

[Lilly420]

Skirt is finished, bitches! FUCK YEAH!

Now on to the shirt! Doing a bit of a different pattern than I thought I would, but I think it's still going to be badass ;3

[Lilly420]

The shirt! FINALLY FINISHED! xD I'll get someone to take a pic of it all together before City on Saturday :D

wow good ... and a lot, of work! Good job on posting all the updates / process too.

Awesome! And I absolutely love the layering in the back!! :D

[Lilly420]

Had a great time last night, and I found out that the green in the dreads, the choker, armwarmers, and lace along the front of the shirt are all UV reactive :D

He's SUCH a handful! If you'd like to come over and train him for us, we definitely wouldn't mind calling you 'Aunt Vickie" xD
