CYRK: Transience in Bloom - Week 9

 




This week I tried my prototype for Ensemble 2 on my lovely model, Holly. I’m planning on emphasizing the asymmetrical hem on the top and making the sleeve longer on the sides. I am also going to make the off-the-shoulder strap bigger so that she can move her arms more freely. I also plan to redo the skirt prototype for the box pleats because I think that will take less time than trying to figure out how to redraft my pieces that I sewed incorrectly. 

I also finally managed to get a picture of my model, Mara, in ensemble 1. I have one more round of alterations and pattern adjusting to do before this ensemble is complete but I am very pleased with the progress I have made for this ensemble. 

I’m also very happy because both of my models are excited to wear my designs and feel they fit their personalities well.
