The Silver Silk Shirt

I tried really hard this month to make simple wearable garms that I can just throw on in the morning. To be honest I've said that since the beginning but then my inner costumier takes over and I just want to embellish everything to the max!

This shirt started life out as a jumpsuit. Somehow in my head a silver silk jumpsuit was a simple, wearable thing I could just throw on! I was half way through sewing it up, when I had a moment of clarity and realised that silver jumpsuits are in fact only really suitable for flying to the moon. So I cut it in half and turned the top into a little cropped shirt. Don't worry, the bottom half wont be wasted it will become some smart trousers soon. But until then I'm pretty chuffed with the shirt, it has a proper button placket and everything!
