Beautiful work as ever!

[rosenkavalier]

Thank you!

Will you be modelling a devastating new creation at Whitby?

[rosenkavalier]

Sadly I'm not going to be at this one - I hope you have a great time up there!

So much awesome. I particularly love the banyan and cap - I've never seen rose print look so masculine.

[rosenkavalier]

Thanks - I was rather pleased with the way it turned out!

[rosenkavalier]

I realised, when I actually saw him wearing the red coat, that it made him look rather like a Chelsea Pensioner...

Very nice, though the Banyan was rather unexpected. I know you like to experiment though, and I'm sure he's really pleased with it as it looks great on him.

[rosenkavalier]

Unexpected in what way? The choice of fabric?

By the way, does the coat fit?

[fracture242]

Both actually. I've not seen you make a garment like that before, though perhaps I missed a past endeavour. The fabric is an unusual choice for a man, but as someone above has said looks very good on him indeed.

The coat fits very well on the arms. The shoulder seams are a little off but it isn't very noticeable, and the cuffs are perfect on the hand.

I'm glad it (mostly) fits! Unfortunately there's not much I can do about the shoulders, without taking it apart and remaking it, but I hope it's not too much of a problem - that's always going to be a difficulty with things that are adapted from one person to another...
