Fall 2023 outfit for 12” in black and white.
I started with a white china silk for the blouse.
Long sleeves with a collar and a ribbon as a neck trim.
The blouse is actually a body suit and connect at the bottom.
This is I avoided a run ups at the skirt waist line.
The skirt is made of black worsted wool at the top and black tulle.
The top part is lined with black china silk.
The lower part has four layers of black tulle gathered and sewn to the top part.
Once I finished with the jacket I realized that the jacket was shorter then the top part of the skirt and it bothered me. So, I added black tulle around the waist line, all folded in small pleats to cover the whole skirt.
That worked fine.
The jacket is a shawl collar fitted jacket, made of black worsted wool, lined with china silk.
The jacket fashioned two welt pockets in the front, slit in the back and two parts sleeves.
The sleeves slit is decorated with two gold metal buttons.
The jacket closes with a hook and has a gold metal button in the front.
The earrings are made by me from various chin beads and meta posts.
Doll and shoes are not included.
