So ever since that last post, I’ve been deliberating (and sewing, HOORAY, but not for this, unfortunately). And in my deliberations, it was suggested to go for some palazzo pants. I liked the idea of palazzo pants so much that I kind of set myself on them….until…I saw this:
This is a jumpsuit from the April 2016 issue of Burda. If I can figure out the perfect fabric (it says it’s for jersey, but I’d really rather use a floaty woven with a bit of spandex–rayon crepe perhaps?), this decision is made. I’m aiming for royal blue or teal, silver heels, a sticky bra, and some sort of simple hairstyle that will likely be determined by the weather.

I’m kinda liking these shoes, though I’ll admit I was originally looking for something a bit more…delicate?
Now, if you’ve seen me comment on my fear of jumpsuits+ calls of nature, this is still a valid concern, but I’ve got an idea that involves an extra long invisible zip…
P.S. None of the links are affiliated or whatever–they are so that I can finally close the tabs I have open and find the stuff later. 🙂
Snazzy! Jumpsuits and calls of nature are a particularly bad combination, aren’t they? I’m dreaming of a jumpsuit and my plan is to have a halter neck top with closure at the nape. Either ties or a bikini style closure, so I get get the thing off even with a jacket or shirt on top.
So, extra long invisible zip, eh? Following the crotch seam?

Yep! Zipperstop has them up to 36″ long, so I think I can find one long enough to work. The only catch will be my inability to sew in invisible zip without a small wrinkle or bubble at the end. So I need some practice!

This is a beautiful jumpsuit inspiration. Will try my hands on it.
