Minus Sun

This is the Cultured Girl’s dress in calico for “It rained into her room.” collection. Stitching details for the final version are all hand drawn using fabric pens. It is a simple sleeveless dress with two large patch pockets on the front side. The dots with an angle at the front neckline which continue to curve at the back side represents a raindrop shape. The dots on the pockets are dripping to the lower part of the dress.

This is from my 3rd collection “It rained into her room.” It looks like a blouse and a skirt but it is actually connected at the waist line. The front opening has button loops and navy covered buttons, the collar is pointy at the back with cotton ribbon trimmings to represent a handkerchief, the small breast pocket forms a teardrop shape with the hand drawn dots.

This is a commissioned piece of the Controlling Girl’s shirt dress calico version from “minus the sun, night all day” collection. The marks and lines are drawn by hand and not actual embroidery, only the elbow patches are hand stitched. It is almost the same as the original but the resin buttons have embroidery inside instead of sequins. Also, it has a different mood because the calico I use is not always the same and I often combine different ones.
