Silk Dresses - two more



 

Created two more dresses out of silk scarves. Basic composition stays the same, but sizes of scarves involved does change elements. If one wanted to travel light, could likely pack 5 along with your normal stuff in a large handbag. Easy care, and hand dries quickly because material light.

Photo Shoot - Silk Dresses

 



Experiment here to see if we can get it to look to level we like. Photo shoot with the kids -- using the silk dresses as the product. Hopefully helps to  develop 'process steps" thinking, matched with their already creative bent. Many more steps to go, but learning and collaboration achieved already with our first couple sessions.

Dress from Scarves - Number Two

 


Scarves put to new use. I felt a bit bad sewing on the silk Liberty of London ones but they were just sitting in a drawer, so have new life.

Dress made of Scarves

 



A little trickier than what I thought when I started. To work the scarf sizes together -- granted the simple shape helped, but more engineering than I had thought. In hindsight, I would have chosen a different one for the top -- makes too strong a "bigness" up there..pattern and drape.   The American Airlines scarf still needs some ironing(lower back) ...must have been folded for a long time. :)
