Long Sleeve
and Jeans


This costume was made in Annika Schindler's class on miniature costume fabrication. The maquette has a strange body shape which created a bit of a challenge. Super narrow shoulders, rounded inner thighs, super wide hips and a completely flat rear. I used the pink contrast stitching to help emphasize the cartoonish look and unify the color scheme.
