Alice in wonderland look

Challanged with the idea of finding inspiration from alice in wonderland, I choose to focus of the background more than the actual characters. For this design I made a jacket and a slip dress inspired by the mushrooms and the geometric colorful patterns representing essence of the movie. The jacket is tween with a satin lining and pleated stretch mesh detailing. The dress is a stretch jersey with velvet trimmings.

The structure of this dress was difficult to create Mushroom light pieces that stick out from the jacket. The jacket is also short and bed late as well as a very lightweight material. To create the structure I used boning and heavy weight interfacing to hold the shape. A little math was involved too!
