High Back Strapped Underbust Facelift

Nov 09, 2011 11:07

Hey everyone!

Wow, I'm a posty McPostypants these days.
I just completed yet another sample that has been given a pattern-draft facelift. This one is one of my most popular styles from back in the day, the high-back strapped underbust. For those of you who don't remember, Totally Waisted! was one of the very first companies to offer this style for purchase! :)

Anyway. to celebrate the new pattern-draft, I made a sample. And I took lots of pictures because this was also one of my first pieces displaying contrasting stitching. And I'm super proud of how it turned out! It wasn't at all nearly as scary as I thought it would be! :p

Without further adieu: a beautiful warm-black silk strapped underbust with brown stitching and rust ribbon detailing!

This baby has a 33 underbust, 21 waist and 33 upper hip. 26 steels (not including the decorative chevrons on the centre front panel), staytape, German coutil foundation, blah blah.

I'm super happy with how beautiful and shapely this update is!
