Michael wears metal

Working on my prototype line for aletheia Junkyard – it seems like a pretty simple process, but I’m running into lots of problems to solve. First of all, can you get it over a baby head?? Can the graphic be read? Are the sleeves a perfect fit?
Not to mention the construction details – snap placket or no snap placket? Clean finish techniques? and how to construct them in enough time that I won’t have to charge $50 for a recycled T shirt?!
Stay tuned, I guess.

Esther was such a stinker this day… or maybe Mama was the stinker. Anyway, here’s an illusion of peace for the sake of fashion.
The dress was made for her when she was a baby. I have to say, though the proportions are a little off, it still works as a tunic two years later. I’m trying to gear my designs more and more this way – if you are going to pay boutique prices for a kids’ garment, wouldn’t you want to have it around for more than a few months? Maybe if I had placed the waist a little lower, it would look a little more believable as a 2T garment.
Should I be worried?
Here’s my test garment for the junkyard line. Looks pretty kickin’, Esther.
Also, I’m looking for a better name if you are out there.
I’m learning a thing or two about children’s fashion photography. It seems like the best photos are accidental. Don’t let a baby pose, you’ll get dreck to work with. Chase a baby around with a camera while he plays and viola, magic.
