Playing with outfit arrangements and body

Started putting my garments into outfits. Great way to see what stuff I'm missing and what is working.
Need to design another pair of underwear for far left drawing. Still need to do spec for my one structured garment (corset) and PJ's annddd shawls. Not sure how Ill incorporate the shawls, perhaps ill have the girl holding it or if There is a lack of tops I could have it draped over her front.
I still think I should do my figures in watercolour. After seeing the clothing together I still think it is possible to use them for my final line up because when I do a lose figure with paint or something it will tone down the 'spec side'. Also think I might photograph a face and place it on to give the figure more of a presence.
P.s Ignore the random arm 





Rib Knitting

Learning how to rib knit. I had this in mid for hem bands for knitted garments.

Ribbing gone wrong, did not cast on with pearl,knit,pearl etc

Success! single rows. I can image this one being used as waist band etc with elastic inside.

Double row rib, but muched up top and bottom
