This is the calico version of the Controlling Girl’s shirt dress of my new collection. The embroidery details for the final version are drawn in with fabric pens instead. Colours are kept to black and red only for the calico version. Therefore the handmade resin buttons used for this one are all red. In the final one, buttons will be representing planets in different colours.
breast pocket has a detail of the waxing of the moon
The pattern used in various areas represents stars
pocket inside pocket and the cuff detail
The elbow patch which is actually hand stitched represents graduation for direction
