#FallforCostume Day 22: Stripes

Welcome to pattern matching hell where we bring you offset windowpane plaids that are not symmetrical in all directions! 😂😭

This was a 19th century wool waistcoat project for one of my costume construction classes in college that taught me some basic skills in tailoring, but sewing was frankly the easy part in comparison. It felt like I spent way more time in the cutting stage than I did actually constructing it. A lot of marking up my patterns, staring endlessly at the plaid, and swear words contributed to this project 😂

I figured out a lot of cool tricks for pattern matching though, especially for plaids. I plan on making a tutorial guide about it sometime!

Susan Hilferty | Costume for the character Elphaba in “Wicked” | c. 2003⠀ ——⠀ I decided to force myself get into the Halloween Ooky Spooky Spirit after a car accident (no one was hurt) and then a bout of bronchitis this past week. So I am doing a little ‘13 Days of Halloween’ thing to cheer me up. First up is one of Elphaba's costumes by Susan Hilferty. She was inspired by William Wallace Denslow's illustrations to Frank Baum's 1900 children's novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. I saw the OBC of “Wicked” on a theater trip to NY when as a young teen and I was forever in love musical theater since then. What’s your favorite musical? ⠀ (@ Item No. 2012.0247.01)⠀ ——⠀ #13daysofhalloween #fashion #mode #moda #design #art#vintage #halloween #halloweencostume #musical #susanhilferty #wickedthemusical #wicked #witch #musical #defyinggravity #idinamenzel #williamwallacedenslow #wizardofoz #theatrecostume #costumedesign #elphaba https://www.instagram.com/p/B3xYiieA8AW/?igshid=8vie5o95b8ql
