Sewing time...Lagenlook
There are few styles that I identify myself with (especially when using the word 'style' - yuck). I know what I like when I see it. This time is no different from any other when I find something I like: I make my own. Things just mean more to me when hand wrought.
My 'style' that I'm referring to is Lagenlook. Pure comfort with a little bit Hippy thrown in, with a nod to simpler days gone by.
The jacket in the first picture is an upcycled button down cotton shirt. The front piece was the lower back part of the shirt. I sewed on a bit of vintage lace to that front panel. The one just above is made from 100% cotton Gauze that was actually a table cloth I had.
They are not 100% Linen, which is the creme d 'la creme of Lagenlook fabric. Thought I'd practice a bit first.
These were my first two efforts in Lagenlook. I have since made a few more that I will post as I photograph them. Thanks for reading. Anni
WOW! Ilove both looks. While I admire this look, I'm not sure if I can pull it off myself. A little short and round and this "seems" a little tall and lean. Still, I've followed your posts on Pinterest with avid interest and these creations of your own really inspire. Nice job!
