Gilet for Steampunk larp (Orenda)
Aug. 21st, 2015 11:46 amAs soon as I signed up on Facebook I got my first custom costume order again. Hieronymous wanted a vest for Orenda larp, a steampunk event next weekend. He wanted a vest in the style of Penny Dreadful, with collar and pocket-watch-pocket.
I adapted a Vogue pattern and drafted my own collar and pocket in it. I also drafted a lining and facing pattern to go with it.
The size was perfect right off the bat, which is just dumb luck and reading the pattern sizes right. Here's the details!

I am very pleased with the result. Hieronymous himself said "I love this vest with the power of a thousand suns!"
This morning I made a Facebook Page for Dolle Griet, and this vest was the first thing posted (reposted from Hieronymous' Facebook page). It was up on Facebook before it was up on the Dolle Griet website! The shame!
