Description Digital coloring takes soooo long. >_< Anyway, I designed this coat (I call it the "Dahlia Coat"), which can be adjusted to be different lengths by unzipping the tiers at the hem. I sketched the drawing on paper, inked it with some pens, and then scanned it in to color on Paint Tool SAI. I was inspired by the silhouette and color of a Guess coat that I own.

I finalized the design of the coat the girl in this deviation was wearing:



And I forgot to finish the lace on the bottom tier in the sketch view...

invisible zippers? awesome

Not technically. They are hidden by the tiers, but they would be plastic separating zippers, not invisible ones. Thank you!

Well, it's just that I've never seen a separating invisible zipper, and I need the tiers to be able to come off the jacket. Thanks!

I don't know if you've noticed, but sometimes designers name their garments/shoes after names or words. I just remember "Dahlia" had a connotation to purple, so I named it that. xD

Roxyguitarz [2012-02-10 05:00:29 +0000 UTC]

Awesome design - love the zip options. I would so wear this, and play with the different looks I could get from zipping off the tiers. Genius!

The thing is I suck so bad with a sewing machine I gave up any attempt to making clothes myself with a pattern, haha

Maybe someday...

It takes some getting used to. I'm sure you can do it just fine. Just have patience and determination and you will finish something someday.
