Korean artist Kimsooja splits her time between New York, Paris and Seoul, and has exhibited her work worldwide. This fantastic installation was done in the Palacio de Cristal in Madrid's Retiro Park. The greenhouse was transformed into a luminous, prismatic wonderland that the artist calls "To Breathe - A Mirror Woman." To create the installation, translucent diffraction film was placed over the greenhouse glass, and mirrors were applied to the floor. There was a sound component to the installation as we...

This is a Sewing Pattern This is a 1947 and/or 1957s iconic modern Dior design jacket sewing pattern < >< >< >< >< Skill level of the coat: ADVANCED < >< >< >< >< All my patterns are handmade to standard sizes and they contain English notes as well as notches that make it easy to join the pieces of the pattern together. A cutting diagram and information on the required yardage are included. To keep prices down, SEWING INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT INCLUDED. If you require Construction Steps for your pattern, please let me know before placing your order. - NO hem or seam allowance. - NO detailed instruction, only the notches and symbols, and named lines basic instructions. - NO step-by-step illustrations to go with instructions - NO cutting charts for individual sizes, the cutting diagram are for a stacked, graded pattern so some sizes may require less fabric. However, I can write some basic construction steps if you need or any specific steps in the process that you would like me to describe. ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~ . . . . . . This is a Jacket design pattern made exclusively for you, with your custom size or standard size. You will have your vintage design ready to cut and sew. ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~ . . . . . . Prices for custom (made to measure) sizes are the price of the pattern plus €20 Choose the pattern and then add the following item to your cart : CUSTOM SIZE SEWING PATTERN https://www.etsy.com/listing/102701185/custom-size-sewing-pattern?ref=shop_home_active_1 FOR CUSTOM SIZES convo me your measurements and specify your body type. To assure the best fit possible, please refer to my INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO TAKE MEASUREMENTS by copying and pasting the following address into your browser: http://contrapunt.weebly.com/taking-measurements.html Once you’ve taken your measurements, please paste them into the “Note” box on the Order page. ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~ How to choose a STANDARD SIZE? I can make standard sizes S, M, L, or XL with small adjustments to better fit you. Sizes are a tricky issue, and there aren’t any hard and fast rules, but I’d say my list of sizes is more European than American. To assure the best fit possible, please refer to my INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO TAKE MEASUREMENTS by copying and pasting the following address into your browser: http://contrapunt.weebly.com/taking-measurements.html The best way to know your size is to take some measurements of yourself and use them to gauge your size. I can also modify a pattern to better fit your measurements. For example: You choose size S (Europe 40-42). If your body is closer to the first number, 86 (Upper bust/Torax 86-88 cm), than the second, 88, please tell me. Otherwise, the pattern will be the standard size S of between 86-88 cm for the upper bust. ~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~ All sizes, both standard and custom, can be modified to your liking (for example, waist higher or lower; skirt longer, shorter, wider, narrower, unpleated, etc.). A dress can be made as either one or two pieces—as a blouse and skirt, for instance. Please specify any of these alterations by email, or at the bottom of the form “Taking measurements”.
