Man, Im just so Disconnected.

Sunday afternoons are a time of resting and playing for my siblings and myself. As of late, the playing has become more of a small competition. We have begun a weekly "Sew Off" and in these competitions we sew outfits for our models (Barbies). At the end of the challenge we then have a judging round. The only problem is that our parents are very insufficient as judges. My mother thinks they are all great and my dad only understands t-shirts and jeans. SO solve our dilemma and vote for your favorite outfit.

The Challenge "Make a outfit that describes you as a designer", (Project Runway Challenge)



Contestant #1



I wanted this outfit to be something hip as well as functional. It consists of a fitted top in turquoise and a short skirt cut in funky ways. I also made a black hoodie that matches the skirt. I also like using soft comfortable fabric.



Contestant #2

As a Designer I am very interested in geometry and creating shapes within the patterns which is the reason why I had the corset and bolero jacket create a triangle. Also I used a piece of fabric for the skirt that already had a design and sewed it to create a mirroring 90degree triangle on the front and back.



Contestant #3

For this challenge I made a modern flapper dress. It has the usual cut at the mid thigh, where the fringe begins. It is loose in the classic flapper way but I added a modern bunching along the sides. I also made tights, vest and added a head band. Altogether the outfit looks very 60's, I wanted a look that included many genres to make something modern and interesting.



Contestants #4



I like to make corsets, because I find that they accentuate any women's body. I like the colors together and I like to create a more classic look than something way crazy. It isn't something too vibrant, I like cool and relaxing colors.
