I strongly recommend anyone who is interested in making there own lingerie to do so!
- SOOOOO WORTH IT!
Some people might be an unusual size or struggle to get certain styles but for me I just love everything about lingerie and enjoy making clothes!! I think the spark for lingerie started 3 years ago when I got a job in La Senza and was actually measured into my correct size. Then from then on I got trained how to measure and fit a bra properly. So much to take in but there is definitely benefits from wearing the right size. If you haven't been measured. Please go get a fitting, in any lingerie shop because your probably wearing the wrong size.
Anyway, it was pretty rewarding learning all the couture sewing techniques involved, even though the bra doesn't fit... at least I know how to make it! Also very proud of myself for travelling from Scotland to London on my own haha!!
Looks like a bat, I am easily amused if you haven't noticed!!
Now we are talking, cup is inserted I remember buzzing
because it was all coming together now!
Close up of the fabric, I layered a shimmery gold under the black polkadot!
Me at working hard, elastic on pants is a tricky job.
Finished hehe... shame its a 32C, I had to give my Mum it, fits her like a glove!
This was some of the examples we were shown on the Friday morning! If you love underwear and vintage stuff as much as me you can appreciate how buzzing I was when I took this picture.
I am such a geek!
Anyways was an amazing learning experience for me and I met some very nice people while I was there. The course was worth every penny! If you are struggling to find a lingerie course, I will post the link below for those who would like a swatch! Also if you google lingerie courses and there cheap its because they're probably rubbish :) read reviews!
