What's on Sally :: Silk & Sequins Shirt & Skirt

As I contemplate stepping back from workshops for the whole of next Term

I started to freak out about not having any images to share over that time

turns out I have enough images of past REinvents 
to keep us going for a few years Terms

not that I would consider opting-out for that long

I found these couple of older REinvents 
I recently REphotographed

***Everything you are about to see has been
Op Shop sourced.

The Alannah Hill silk & sequin shrug 
was big enough for a toddler
and because I wanted to wear it
the sides were carefully unpicked and opened 
the finished edges from a filed garment were added to the openings for width 
and along the hem edge for length

the Rag Rose Brooch was created for another garment entirely 

that's the beauty of brooches
they're versatile.


To date I have only ever worn it over this
Shirt & Skirt Frock REinvent
I liked how you could dress it up or dress it down

The bodice of the Frock
is the reverse of a shirt

and the skirt of the Frock 
is the Skirt 'as is'




all I've done to change the skirt [apart from attach it to the bodice] 
is add the fronts of the shirt to disguise & level out the original shaped skirt hem


and the straps came out of the shirt sleeves.



There weren't many left-overs from this REinvent.
