Lolita Style Outfit - In progress 1

Here are a couple in progress pics of a Lolita style outfit I've been commissioned to create. Dunno if I'll be doing this again but it's greasing creative wheels I haven't used in a long time!

This is a pic of the 1st draft which I actually wound up scrapping half of because of my anal retentiveness attention to detail (yeah, that's it).

Muslin mock up - Front double breasted snazziness & Back lacing.

There's a tail/skirting that I added after the above pics and there will be a skirt to match. It looks worlds different now but I've got to wait for my batteries to charge for my digicam before I can take more pics.
The finished piece will be in white cotton that has a fine allover white pattern. It reminds me of the squiggles in frost on a window. It'll have lovely art deco buttons and embroidered eyelet, scallop lace trim.

Fitting scheduled for this weekend and then  I get to dive into the good fabric!

Thank you! Like I said I haven't done anything like this in a loooong time.
And yes, if people would just let me pin the fabric right to them things would go so much quicker ;p

Hopefully I'll get a minute to get some decent pics today. There really is a big difference now.
