What do you do on a day you can pick doing whatever you like? Well, taking time to improve a pattern of my favorite white #linen trousers. It is a fastfashion one, although made in Italie and pure linen. I have heard now about #sweatshops there with illegal chinese workers😱 and about the spinners of yarn far away. Also I have now organic and fair fabrics in the studio (local linen, better for work and biodiversity) So before it falls apart lets improve some things in the design! Do you recognise the following points in your clothes? No or to small pockets! The fabric getting thin on the inside legs especially when being a #plussize #gloriousgirl The seams only done by overlock so starting slowly to tear apart the openweave linen (must always wear long shirts for accidents on most inappropried moments or being worried about it) so is it work? Hmmm... its what I want to do most right now! I love linen and small pleats! Tell me your problems with clothes too!!! #slowly #slowfashion #slowliving in the sun, door open with #birdsong #whomademyclothes #fashionrevolution #fashionrevolutionweek #sustainablefashion #ethicalfashion #fairfashion #earthday
Last piece made by #fashionintern @jannekevanheiningen a handmade #linen #bustier #organiclinen She did a lovely job. The interlining is made of a canvas I had in the studio. It has a lovely sturdy feeling. The lining is #cotton #hemp #silk satin handdyed with #walnut #ecotextilestudio @albedamode
Not just having fun with #fashionintern girls. @ilovefashionforever___ gave me some help with this sheet for keeping track of materials and hours during the work on our collection. Making it very easy and always close to the work. Probably we will use an app too ( like gekko uren) but we seem to forget it to often, so lets first start with an oldfashioned paper record!
