The final concept garment.

After two days, in the sense of the upcoming madness .. I finished final work - my little camisole .. I realize that in a sense, I  used the least possibilities of design, I have chosen as the final. Unfortunately, a week that I had available was a run on the 400 meters - very quickly I had to perform all the samples, complete the work in sketchbook and execute the final product.

A sense of dissatisfaction, is mixed with a conscience, and despite everything I devoted maximum time and my physical capabilities to the fact that although in most part to meet the initial assumptions.

Po dwóch dniach, w poczuciu nadchodzącego szaleństwa.. skonczylam końcowa pracę - .. zdaję sobie sprawę, ze w pewnym sensie wykorzystałam minimum mozliwosci wzoru, który wybrałam jako końcowy. niestety tydzień, jaki miałam do dyspozycji byl jak bieg na 400 metrów - w bardzo szybkim tempie musiałam wykonać wszystkie próbki, dokonczyć prace w sketchbooku oraz wykonać końcowy projekt - czyli uszyć koszulke nocna.
 Poczucie niedosytu, miesza się ze swiadomoscia, iz mimo wszytko poswieciłam maksymalny czas i moje mozliwosci fizyczne do tego, aby choć w większej czesci sprostać początkowym załozeniom.

 Henry VIII costumes feature a wide range of design, embroidered, or other applied techniques. I liked the above technique, so I decided (by doing the previously utilizing a sample of wallpaper),  this time using satin and beads as decoration.

 

 

Sampling continuation...

Just started another sample..  They look similar, but varied decoration makes them different in the final result.

Another sample..

 

 

Today I finished another sample ... which took me only nine hours! Is it I'm so slow? But, I must admit, really I like it the end result.

First samples..

 

 

 

 

 

During my trip to Poland, commissioned by me literally at the last minute thermofax screen, was delivered. Thanks to this, the first day back, I could start the first samples. I made about 10 versions of my two designs, and after returning home, began a laborious, but fun part - stitching, decorating .. first results, as you can see the pictures .. both samples only took me about nine hours .. : )

Few samples..

- Sir Peter Paul Rubens (1577-1640) "Psyche"

(black and white chalks on buff paper)

 

"This is a study for Rubens's painting cupid and psyche. Rubens had resently returned from Italy, and the figure shows the almost masculine aspect that he had pickep up from Michelangelo's depictions of the female nude."
