I've bought the fabric to sew my vintage inspired, colourful and sustainable capsule wardrobe for my trip to Europe in the summer. In this video, I show you my fabric haul and explain the 11 items I will be sewing ... if I have time!
I'm also exploring the vintage sewing patterns that inspired me. Looking at the fabric, colour and cut that makes the items in the mix and match weekend wardrobes work so well together. These small vintage capsule wardrobes include a range of clothes that provide outfits for many different activities and occasions. This is the inspiration for my capsule as I need the pieces to layer over each other and combine in different ways as the weather in Europe in June may be variable.
I am making 3 suits: one in plain Navy/blue, one in a plum/red colour and one in a print fabric that is my anchor fabric and will tie the other two colours together. I am also sewing a dress to wear to the western wedding and a sari blouse that I need to make for my Sari outfit for the Indian wedding.
