School Diary: Paper Doll
For History Class, we had to make a gown for a paper doll inspired by either Baroque or Rococo Period. I liked the silhouette from the Rococo better so i based the design from their costumes.
Instead of doing the usual paper doll made out of paper... i decided to actually use fabric. Because i wanted to show that their garments had 3 layers, it would be kind of harder to interpret that with just paper. I had no idea it's gonna be quite tricky sewing a garment this small. I originally thought it would be easier since it's really small and it will take less time to make. BUT, hell no. The fact that it's smaller, actually makes it much harder. I handstitched the fabric instead of running it in the machine because i was afraid i might ruin it. It took me about 3-4 hours to finish it and i'm really happy how it turned out.
I present to you, my very first haute couture. CHOS!
