As some of you may know, I wanna go into costume design for film/theatre more than I want to do illustration... but I've also got a ridiculous fascination with clothes. OAO
Post pics of stuff you like/make!

 I actually wanted to be a clothes designer for most of my life, until I realised how much I love languages and writing ;D
Used to do actuall avant-garde fashion shows too *nodnod*
Sadly, it was too long ago, so no picture proof. And I left all of my sketchbooks back home where they belong.
However. I love these
This is where Buki got the inspiration for the Dappy Dandy as well c:

I can't sew worth a crap but I do have a fascination with clothes as well. I like taking things from my closet and drawers and throwing things together making a whole new outfit. I do this a lot when me and my friends take pictures. I think clothes play an important role in photography. It helps set the mood. Here's an outfit I threw together for our Fall Shoot. Just an old skirt, two shawls, a black sweater, black leggings, tan emu boots (I think that's what they're called), and a necklace that I got from some Buddhist. 3nodding  Here's the outfit that my friend made when we did the same photo shoot. Lucky her, she has more sewing skills then I lol. She helps me on most of my projects. We're thinking of making some simple clothing merchandise and starting our own business. My brother is in the process of making us a soak screen so we can start putting some of our designs on shirts. She helped me make a little hat that was more like a hair clip and we got offered $50 for it. The cost of the materials were under $10 and I still had some stuff left over to make another hat. So yeah, we're really considering this. If we make any more stuff I'll be sure to post it up here. ^^

I can sew and do it a lot. Actually, I want to try the one Alykacha mentioned because it looks so awesome and pretty simple too. When I do I might post pictures.

It's the detail in the patterns and the adornments. The boomingly vivid colours and a nostalgic look that make it not only beautiful, but cute in my opinion.

Chieftain Twilight and just like dappy dandy, it's tacky until the end. confused but that's just my personal opinion. i hav eto ask, what is the fascination with that style? not to be rude or anything, i am honestly just curious. it just isn't my personal taste, and want to know what about it other people like. There's a famous saying. Opinions are like arseholes. Everyone has one, most of them stink, and its only rarely that you want to hear them - particularly unasked for. Or to put it another way, if you have to add 'no offense' or 'not to be rude', maybe you should rethink the comment.

Ah, I love making costumes. I have 2 planned to make in the next year or so. One is an elf costume I designed, and the other is a costume of Echidna from Devil May Cry 4.
I haven't started either as of yet, but hopefully I'll have time in the summer.
