And in related news, I’ve been catching up on my travel posts, and am aaaaalmost done, so then I’ll have more sewing posts to catch up on 😀
Anyway!
When I was in England my friends Katy & X took me to the Fashion and Textile Museum, which had (and maybe still has) a Pop design exhibit.
This dress was from the 60s I believe (I took a picture of the label, but I don’t have it handy) and I really like the seam lines and the flow. I took a lot of pics of it and intend on replicating it.
I have an incredible weakness for stripey jackets ;_;
It’s Jo’s outfit!
Seriously, very similar to the outfit she wore in promo pics.
Not very fond of it on her, but I did really like this outfit.
Alarm clock/radio!
I want it.
The designers name is completely escaping me now. But you may recognize it.
There were a few other dresses I would really like to replicate, and now I think of it I think they were all 60s… but early 60s so they had a bit more of the 50s silhouette.
Basically I went blah blah blah seam lines, I want, stripes, jackets, blah and Katy was wonderful and humoured me.
Then we went nextdoor where X was waiting at the tea shop and yaaay had more tea!
(They had the direct line to my everlasting devotion, historical fashion and tea, together!)
