The piece I made used linen pants and cotton twill donated by Tory Burch, a thrifted linen jacket, and repurposed buttons to avoid using any new materials and trying to waste as less as possible. The design was created by pattern-making, dyeing the fabrics black, and stitching a new textile. The patches on the sleeves are created by combining scraps of leftover pant fabric under embroidery stabilizer paper and sewing continuous lines to connect them, the patch pieces were then cut out of this new sheet of fabric.
My project was nominated as class choice to be considered for the Tory Burch competition.
