The pattern for this pierrot jacket is taken from Kvinnligt mode under två sekel. The original is made of striped silk and luckily enough I had a piece of striped cotton in my stash. Though I have used this jacket for several years, it is still not finished. I need to tweak the front so it fits better and both front and sleeves need their buttons! For now I just pin it shut.
Also, if you compare the photo above with the one below, it looks vastly better with the proper amount of petticoats to set it off.
Please ignore that my cap is trying to escape, the little rascal.
And now it is my turn to try this pattern!
ReplyDeleteI look forward to see yours! I'm sure it will be much prettier than mine!

ReplyDeleteJag tycker mycket om din Pierrot och fotona är väldigt fina. Detta är faktiskt min favorit bland de kostymer ur din garderob som jag har sett.

Lauren! Thank you! Yes, I like that too and the goat just make the whole picture. :D He wasn't very keen though, he wanted back to his mummy.
