I know it’s insane to be thinking about a winter wardrobe in 40+ degree C heat but that’s exactly what I did this weekend. I want to sew a few key pieces for my wardrobe this year, and given my track record, I need to start months in advance to get anything finished in time!
Working from my feet up I’ve started a mood board to decided what colours and styles I’ll work with this season.
Lula magazine always inspires me so that’s where I started….
At this stage my wardrobe will include some of the following:
Colours
Mustard yellow/gold/camel
Plum/burgundy/aubergine/berry
Copper brown/cinnamon
Burnt orange
Mushroom pink
Khaki
Taupe/grey/beige
Black
White
Denim blue
Inspiration
Feathers
1950’s
Ruffles
Bows
Sparkles/pearls
Lace
Leather
Drapping
Key Pieces
Black hat
Solid colour skirt
Blazer
Plaid button up
Mustard yellow cardi
Denim shirt
Sparkle top
Leather Jacket
Jersey+leather pants
Knit vest
Cape
Scarves
Silky camisole
Ankle boots
Oversize top/jumper
Roll neck top
Cowl neck dress
I drew these shoes from images I found on the net. I’ll use this as a starting point for the ankle boots I’d like to buy.
I’ll be sketching the other items I’d like to buy/make over the coming week and will be happy to share once their done.
