After spending most of the week and weekend stressing about this on stand presentation, it feels amazing to have it up there! Things were mostly just pinned together, but the corset is near on complete, which is a huge relief. Don't even want to think how many hours I've put into it.The chemise is coming along really well too, really happy with the volume and fullness its achieved, didn't think that it would. But then again, the hem is nearly 3m in circumference. There's a lot of fabric in it.
Beading decoration on the skirt and corset was loved by all. Considering they've taken a couple of hours each, I'm glad to have them over. Note to all, beading takes forever; especially when your beads are smaller than the head of the smallest beading needle out there.
Apparently my 'puff' wasn't large enough or puffy enough. Gotta whack a whole more net under it to achieve the volume.
Working with Frances Tempest, a major player in the Costume Design for Screen industry is the best experience possible. Learning day by day something new about the industry and the world of construction. So many questions and decisions to run by the designer. Collaboration is key.
