This is a Vintage Suit I made using Vogue V1019, the details are subtle with flat fell stitching on the jacket and a lovely peplum. I decided on grey so that it would show off the stitching and used a pink lining to soften and accent the grey. The lining was a challenge as it also followed the stitching design on the outside of the jacket. It seemed that the suit needed a hat and I used Vogue V8405 with my own interpretation for the brim decoration – using the lining of the suit, adding a rhinestone belt buckle and a rose flower as decoration.
