This week's project is finally finished and you won't find a happier lady in Oslo! This jacket is inspired by Norman Norell's design from 1960's. As soon as I saw a picture of the original two piece wool suit in marigold, I knew I HAVE TO figure out a way to make one for myself! Months later.. It's finally here . #vintagejacket #vintagestyle #vintagefashion #retrofashion #1960s #normannorell #diyclothes #diyvintage #diydress #vintagelove #vintag
A journey from an inspiring picture to a real outfit is very much like falling in love: butterflies of excitement at first sight, dreaming about how wonderful it could be, frustration over the reality of how hard it actually is and the result... well... it can always go both ways and you'll never know unless you try. In this case ... I believe my outfit was worth the pain (and a chipped tooth, just sayin...)😉👗 . . #sewing #sewingvintage #vintagejacket #vintageskirt #vintagefashion
