Mother of the Groom outfit

I have loved making this outfit for a good friend; she is tall and elegant and likes to wear soft clothes that are comfortable and easy to wear.  She has a strong ethical approach to her clothes and was delighted for me to use some naturally dyed Kantha Silk that was made in a fair trade Bangladeshi workshop for the waistcoat and scarf; and naturally dyed Silk Jersey for the tunic top.  The pants are made with stretch printed denim and all the piping and the waistcoat and scarf linings are cherry red crepe backed satin.  She looked truly amazing in the finished outfit, kind of supermodelish!  Client project, size 8, £480.
