Step One

This is how our garment looks so far. For our next step we are thinking about adding a shoulder piece by making tassels and maybe pom poms.

The skirt was boring so we simply turned it upside down. As the waist band is now around the ankles the biggest part of the skirt was around the waist we had to make it smaller to fit the model. To do this we put pleats all the way around the waist band to bring it in. By doing this the skirt matches the top just by adding simple pleats, but this wasn't intentional at first but when we did it, it give it extra detail and added some personality to the skirt because its a bit different from the 'normal' maxi skirt.

We added pleats around the neckline and shoulders to add detail and texture and to add depth.



We started by rolling up the bottom of the vest top, at first this was just for quickness but when it was fully rolled up into a crop top we liked the roughness of it. It seemed to fit in with the tribal trend as its not a straight hem its sort of 'wild' in a way, like the jungle.
