MADEIT Fashion Week : FOLD

Today is the 6th day of MADEIT Fashion Week, and it's my turn to show you what I've made!!

I chose to make the Petal Fold separates, just because!

Don't you love it??

Every pattern in this collection is infused with fine details, that make each piece truly unique! Nothing in this collection will bore you. I promise!!!

Hehe. Sorry for the crumply fabric! I didn't have time to iron. But still looks awesome right???

For the photoshoot, we played with water color and lots and lots of paper! Erin had so much fun, all she wanted was to play. I couldn't get decent photos of the garment! lol.

But I'm glad i was able to get these sweet photos of Erin and Kurt.

I'm regretting that i did not let Kurt show off his Book Fold Trousers in these photos! Go check out the pattern, it's awesome!

During fashion week Madeit is offering 20% off the collection, take your change!

But they`re also giving away a Madeit Pattern a day

Pleat Fold Top

Have you seen Made-it Patterns' new collection, FOLD ? Stunning, right?

I was lucky enough to be a tester for a couple of their patterns in this collection. This one I'm going to show you is the Pleat Fold Top.

It’s the little touches that are key when it comes to this beautiful, easy to sew strappy top. Asymmetrical pleating at the neckline adds an unconventional touch and it’s your choice whether you choose a fully shirred band at the hemline or a delicate trim. Both add that certain je ne sais quoi.

Haha. No, those aren't my words. It's the description of the pattern in their shop. :P

Like most of their patterns, the top comes in sizes 2-10, which is too bad because I really want this top for myself! Doesn't she just look so grown up in this ensemble?

Shorts is Striped Swallow's Coachella Shorts.

This week, from Aug 31-Sept 6, Olu and Anna are hosting a virtual fashion show!! During fashion week, all patterns from the FOLD Collection will be 20% off. Not only that, they are giving away a free pattern each day for the whole duration of the Fashion Week. And at the last day of the Show, one lucky winner will receive a €50 NOSH voucher!!!
