Warm Fall colors are the perfect foil for me. I used 100% wool challis in a large plaid in deep burnt oranges, browns and burgundy. I had a scrap of orange suede I use for the front and arm patches and i had recently deconstructed the shantung silk dress I wore to my daughters wedding (I’ll never be a size 2 again 🤦🏻♀️) I used pieces of it for the exposed bias on the neck and sleeve edges and the pocket back. The buttons are as old as me and from my mother and grandmothers button boxes. I also made a scarf.

wow love the colors, all the little extra touches gives this design such a great look. Size 2 what is that? LOL dont think the lagenlook ever came in a size 2
Lolol. Some of those tall skinny models are nothing more than bits of skin and bones. Tina just fits their dresses for pictures on them. Even at my current size I’ll never be big. It’s just in my DNA. My only problem is I’m short too. So I have to adjust for height and width. I took almost 2 feet out of that skirt to make it fit. I left off the bag pocket and kept it flat. I don’t need all the extra “BAGage”. Bwahahaha. 🤷🏻♀️
