Week Two
Tuesday 26th March
Today I took my laptop in to the shop with me to research dresses
to get some more ideas for the dress I am customizing. I continued my research
up until dinner.
After dinner I did some cleaning and tidying in the shop ready for
an afternoon appointment. The appointment was at two for a bride to try on
dresses and to look at possible bridesmaid dresses.
The bride was not getting married till 2015 so she was only
getting some initial dress ideas and colour scheme ideas.
Wednesday 27th March
Today I started to take apart the wedding dress that I am
customizing.
Firstly I unpicked the whole of the bodice section from the skirt
and underskirt sections.
Here shows a close up of the lace and beading on the dress. I’m
not very keen on beading so this is something I will change first.
I begin by unpicking all the beading off the lace appliqué
sections and then unpick the appliqué sections from the under lace fabric.
I continue this till the end of the day
Thursday 28th March & Friday 29th March
Over both days I continued with the removal of the beading and
appliqué sections. The process is taking longer than anticipated as the whole
front and back section of the bodice is heavily beaded.
Saturday 30th March
Today has been a typical Saturday at the shop. No time for
continuing with my work so I was just there to help out with appointments and
keeping the shop in order. I was appointed to answer the phone if it rang
whilst Nick and his mum spoke to the brides.
