Faux leather details

My closet cleaning is still going on. I don't think I'll ever be done since I keep buying more fabrics. But good thing about my cleaning process is that I get to make gorgeous items for sale.

I ended up making these necklace/scarf things for sale. I really like adding either real leather or faux leather to my pieces to give them that edgy look

I have 5 of these for sale and of course one for me. Two of them are at Ateljeekatu. I'm also going to list the rest to Etsy.

Finally I made a dress out of this fabric that I bought from Finnish handicrafts 2014 fair.

Finnish Handicrafts is Europe's largest fair event of the handicrafts and applied arts industry, attracting nearly 40 000 fair guests to Tampere. The most anticipated handicrafts fair was held at the Tampere Exhibition and Sports Centre 14-16 November 2014 for the 19^th time.

I'm already waiting this years fair.

I mainly bought materials for my own projects rather that finished products. And this fabric ended up in to my bag. I also bought the same print in red. The fabric was 150cm x 120cm and cost me 12 € a piece.

I have done this type of "harness" dress before in all black but I wanted to make one in "color" too.

Little black dress

How has everybody been?

I have been crafting everything white O___o even thought everything in this post is black.

I've also have been busy with multiple custom orders.

So I haven't posted anything for few days.

I have had a drawing of this dress for over a year now so finally I made it since it has long sleeves and can be worn with cardigan. The dress has faux leather details in the front. The front also has a "peek hole" above the bust.

I wanted to buy this Black Milk so over you net dress for months now but ended up making one myself. I wanted to make one myself because I used viscose tricot instead of nylon like the Black Milk version is so that I don't need to keep pulling the dress down all the time. That is one big reason that I haven't bought too many Black Milk body con dresses because they keep climbing up.

I also wanted to make my version a bit longer because I ride my bicycle often. And the third difference is that I wanted to use mesh instead of fish net fabric.

Seconhand & Flea market

This year has already started better than the last since I've made such nice findings from friends closet and from local flea market.

I never ever ever ever find shoes from flea markets that fit me. Or if I do find the right size they are in super bad shape and I'm wondering why somebody is even trying to sell them anymore.

I managed to find not one pair but two pairs of great looking shoes that actually fit me. The black ones are made by vagabond and were 12 € and the studded ones are by London rebel and were only 3 €. I have so many shoes that can only be worn in summer but I don't care. I can't wait for summer to arrive.

These great pieces I bought from a friend. A super cute looking lace top and velvet shorts. Many years and many kilograms ago I did have a pair of identical velvet shorts but I ended up selling them since I no longer could fit in them. So I'm super happy to have a new pair of these.

Silver cross tricot top is made by Seppälä and the black pengaline skirt is by H&M. Both were in great shape. These were also found from a friends closet.

Of course I just had to buy these silver "space" shorts. Because everything silver is automatically "spacy". The shape is actually just basic but I love the color.

Trying out

I was supposed to do lots of different things this weekend but I got almost nothing done because I didn't felt like sewing. So I've been just staring at my computer for two days.

Yesterday I went to get new lens for my camera that I've been dreaming to get for few months now. Now I should be able to get better pics indoors in the dark. It is so hard to take pictures of black clothes with black details on a black mannequin in dim lighting. :/

Today I wanted to try out my new camera lens outside. The only problem was that Mr. Grumpy is a bad photographer and all most all pictures were blur because he did not focus them right did not know how to adjust the camera settings. These were the only two that were usable.

We took the pictures at Arboretum park which is quite close to where we live.

If somebody is wondering what corset I'm wearing in the pictures it is this one. I have it for sale with the newspaper print and the all black version.

I have 2 available with the newspaper print in size 22". I'm not able to make more because I don't have more of this same fabric. I have also 2 of this black version available in size 22" but that one I'm able to produce in smaller or bigger size.

Photoshoot pictures are here!

Finally!

I have been eagerly waiting for these a while now. Pictures were taken by me dear friend Eliza. Who is a great photographer. Makeups were done by Maano. Models were Didi-ou and Bones&Lilies.

It was a super cold day but we managed to pull through.

Harness.. part something

Harness dress for summer. I know I have already too made harness dresses. But this one has loose hem. So I can just imagine riding my bicycle while wearing this on a nice warm summer day. I seriously need to come up with better excuses. :D I don't know if I'll ever stop making these?

Usually I don't like making these faux leather straps since I'm not able to find good enough fabric or good enough real leather. But finally Eurokankas has gotten better faux leather to their stores.

The black tricot is 95% viscose and 5% elastane. So very nice and lightweight fabric.

I also ended up making harness suspender skirt. My closet cleaning continues so this is made out of left over fabrics. I really like the texture of the fabric. The skirt does not fit well on the mannequin since it is way too bit for it.
