Custom Wedding Dress & Kimono Upcycled Clothes | オーダーメイドウェディングドレス&着物ドレス
I recently participated in a portfolio shoot for a model named, Ami. She wanted something simple and relaxed, so I styled up the bat sleeve sweater, black sheer top, faux leather peplum top and cream color sweater. I’m enjoying the minimalist trend, as you can see it from the dress I made recently.

I don’t really buy many clothes for myself, except at thrift shops. I love to window shop though. I like to get ideas and am often get tempted to buy something; however, much of the time I feel guilty buying clothes because I can make them. So I prefer to save my purchases for things that fall in the areas of shoes, bags and lingerie as they are things in my “Do not make” category. I know I was a “bag variation designer” for the Burdastyle book, but in reality, I don’t put a lot of time into crafting bags etc.
But today, I made an eco bag for myself with this black and white bold stripe fabric. I used the left over fabric from the skirts I made here. I love the result! It fits a lot, and it was very easy to make.

I hung this new bag in the kitchen to hold many disposable plastic bags, and it looks more stylish than keeping them in another plastic bag. I love my little project:)

Hi! What have you been working on lately sewing wise? I just finished my first batch of orders for Anthom, which is an online shop based in the Washington D.C. area. I am so thrilled to be included in the Anthom launch which is coming up in April. The co-owner Ashley is wonderful to work with and I love her style (and she is pretty). Not only that, Anthom will be carrying great designers, one of which is Samantha Pleet. I have been following Samantha Pleet for a while as you can see in my inspiration post here. (back in 2009.. feels such a long time ago!). She is from Philadelphia, and now is in Brooklyn, I’ve really enjoyed seeing her grow and expand since I found her clothing back in 2009. Now she collaborates with Urban Outfitters and her clothes are stocked in Anthoropologie and Saks Fifth! It is inspiring to see a designer bloom and I would love to follow her path some day…
Anyway, these black and white striped skirts will be in stock in Anthom, and they are exclusive items only available there. I like how the side of the skirts look like chevron stripes.
