easy easing?

Wow- there are a lot of things, I want to cange on the cacoil-prototyp. Especially the shape of the hood need a workover, and the seam with the easing on the bottom of the jacket. Its at the moment not in the following line from the jacket- the seam looks more like a shift in direction, because it goes away from the body of the person who wear the Fernforest-Jacket. But with a bit of draping I can develop a new pattern for the seam, lets start:

hourglass-glasshouse

The main focus for the topic of our jacketproject is to add a function on a tailored jacket, or use a specific functionallity as an inspiration for design. The design of the fairyforest jacket is somewhere between it- cause the jacket includes a kind of protection as a function- which influences the design essentially. The front of jacket should be covered from a shield- but not made from metal- made from satin - so the function was translated into a decorative mesage on the jacket.
But first, I´ll have to think about the shape and structure of the jacket, I want to create a sillouhette with a hourglass-shape, a lot of voluminous fabric on hip and shoulders- but not in countertrade with the mobility and usefulness.
The first calico- prototyp goes the right way to find the final shape. Theres lot of work on the shoulder shape and especially the hood, but the easing on the seam has a nice appearance.

Let´s go, what ingredients we need...?

The last weeks we only learned the basics in Jacket tailoring- now we´ll starts with the design. I need a topic to inspires me. Well. It´s hard, when everything is possible.

I know that I want to realise something with strong, heavy shining colours, but on an subtile way. And I want to be inspired from the Australian landscape. Last weekend I leave Melbourne for a short day-trip in the Mountains. I´d like the silence, the dark and fresh mood in the forests, and I get fascinated from the tall ferns, they´re grown everywhere in the forest. The structure, the sillouette from this plant- georgeous. Like them- choose them. Topic for my jacket: FAIRYFOREST/ URBANFOREST
