| This is Dana mark 1. I loved the giant harem trousers, but I need to find a solution to the weight pulling on the front of them and I'm not happy with the structure I used for the top. The hanging decoration can't really get much lighter; paper balls and balsa wood, so it might mean changing the waistband. I'd like to change the proportions as it seems very cluttered on me, but there's a lot of space on the artwork. I don't have Dana's crazy long body, but I can fake the effect if I adjust the designs. As far as fabric goes I'm really happy with the effects, the colours were vibrant and the red was a really floaty soft peach effect that caught the light well. I had a purple net fabric for the swathes, but at the last minute I swapped it for an opaque purple with better drapability. I hope to find a softer netting for the next try. The hand jewellery was all funky foam painted gold with varnished half paper balls for gems. It's really hard to walk with something that long hanging between your legs :/ I might be having another go at this some time ^^ Me and the hat don't get along. It is a very silly hat. | |
