New Summery Clothing

I've been enjoying the sun shining into my office while I've been working this week and it's been getting me in the mood to design and create some new alternative summer clothing items. First I thought I'd go over my summer skirts section and update some of the older designs with some newer fabrics and styles. I found this black and white storks and stars print fabric which I love so using it I made this skirt. It has a stretchy, elasticized black cotton waistband with a puffy gathered circle skirt in the storks and stars print, with two tiers of black tulle underneath. The waistband is decorated with some lace up panels, lacing with white ribbon to match the storks. This is now available from the punky rah rah skirts section of my website and it will be custom made to fit both regular and plus size. I'm just now waiting for my supplier to get their delivery of sparkly brand new fabric prints in store so that I can continue with updating my range of mini skirts.

Also this week I was looking back at my all time favourite bleached denim studded vest top I've made which was one of a kind and trying to figure out a way of making a similar rock style corset top that is more "ready to wear" and will be possible to make as a repeat item in regular and plus size without being as time consuming and expensive as the one of a kind version. This is the design I came up with. It is made with bleached tan and grey denim with halter neck strap, front zipper fastening and black studded faux leather decoration down the front. Either side of this are black ribbon laces ups, criss crossing down the bust and forming bows at the bottom. I seriously love the effect of bleaching this type of textured two tone denim, I think it has a really cool effect (as you can probably tell by all the different clothes I've been making with it!) So anyway this corset top is available for regular and plus size, made to fit from the tops and corset tops category of my website.

I found a few pieces of this black ponte roma jersey I had leftover from making hot pants and thought I'd make another one of a kind pair of high waisted hot pants. They are fitted with a front zipper fastening and feature tiny skulls decorating the front on one side, with matching skull print back pockets. They are roughly a uk size 8/10 and are on sale at £21.99 since I made them just to use up some scraps. The full measurements are listed in the product description and can be found by clicking the picture.

And lastly, I thought it was time to bring out some more summery dresses. I feel I've made a lot of fitted corset dresses lately but haven't turned my attention much to a more slinky stretchy style of dress which some people might prefer. The first dress I made this week is in red silky stretchy lycra with a deep low cut lace up front, sexy and revealing but not too revealing. The lace up is in black and the sleeves, bust line and lower hem are also in black lycra to match. This dress is available in both regular and plus size from the strappy dresses and mini dresses section of my site and will be made to fit your own measurements. I love this dress, it feels amazingly comfortable to wear and I will be making some more dresses in this style very soon!

Custom Corset Dress & Mini Skirts :)

This week I had a couple of custom items to make using some special fabrics the customer sent me, which was fun. The first is a cute red and white polka dot dress based around the style of my denim rocker chick corset dress. It has a fitted upper body in polka dot with silver D-ring lace up front with white ribbon and white faux leather, with white lace trim on the bust and polka dot halter neck strap. The lower half is a gathered polka dot cotton circle skirt with lots of white tulle underneath and mini faux leather lace up panels. I enjoyed making this dress and was really pleased with how it turned out, so I hope my customer loves it too!

My customer also sent me some very cute penguins print fabric and pirate skull and crossbones print to work with. She wanted some mini skirts in the same style as some of my existing punky mini skirts with black stretch cotton waistband and gathered two tier lower half with the penguins and skull fabrics overlayed on black cotton, with matching ribbons lace up on the corset style waistband.

And lastly I made another pair of one of a kind leggings using up some fabric scraps that had been discontinued, they are made from black cotton with diagonal and overlapping panels of fluorescent green and black stripey print and black and white star print with plain black snuggly cotton backs. The green is a lot brighter in real life, the photos dont do it justice! They are available in a UK size 8/10 but the full info and measurements can be found in the one of a kind and unique leggings category on my clothing website.
