Fall / Winter 2016
In this line, I chose to do a smaller line. It started with eight outfits and then since I had two vests left I added two more outfits to go with the vests.
The influence for the line came from 80's fashion.
I liked the layered look and the bright colors that were featured in the fashion forecasts for the season.
I used china silks in all the linings of the garments. They are all lined. I found this silk to be durable and easy to work with. Plus the dye will not stain the vinyl.
The other fabric selection were linen/cotton blends, cotton, flannel and fleece.
All furs are synthetic. I do not like to use real fur for my designs.
I had to be creative in the hardware that I used. Since I did not want to use snaps for everything, I found those metal clips with chains at Michaels, and the idea came to use it with D rings for the closures. I also found the small plastic clips that worked well proportion wise and are fully functional.
All the jewelry was done by me as well.
The fashion is for 16" dolls, and will fit most 16" dolls since the fit is rather loose.
I hope you like the line as much as I did designing and making it.
Dolls are not included in the sale.
