Casey’s Version of Scallop Waist Skirt and Etsy Craft Party

May 30, 2011 By Chie

This weekend flew by! Although since I’m on maternity leave, weekend means less than when I was working Mon-Fri..:p
On Friday, my in-laws left Japan after their 10-day stay in Japan. It was their first time visiting us in Japan. I hope they had a good time. On Saturday, I had a lunch with my friend, while my husband watched the baby. I felt like a human again, going out on my own to meet my girl friend, and I’m so thankful to have a husband who is willing to let me take a break! We went this natural food buffet place, but unfortunately (or maybe fortunately), I could not eat as much as I wanted to. I feel like my appetite is down compared to when I was pregnant. When I was pregnant, all I thought about was food! Everything tasted so good…perhaps it’s a good thing that I don’t have the same appetite now, as I’m trying to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight..Did everyone have a nice weekend?

This weekend I tried to catch up on my google reader. Since having Sophia Kiko, I’m so behind on my blog reading. While going through my favorite blogs, I found out Casey from Casey’s Elegant Musings tried my scalloped waist skirt pattern (guest post at Grosgrain here)! I am so honored! and I love her version of the skirt. She lengthen the skirt length, and it looks fabulous on her.

If you’ve tried the pattern, I would love to see your skirt! Please send me an email with some photos or link to your blog post so I can feature it here.
I also made another one of scalloped waist skirt in blush rose, and posted in my shop. I have more fabric left, so I can custom make to fit different sizes also. I made the same skirt in gray velvet, and it will be posted in shop soon..just need to take some pictures.

Last but not least, did you know that etians around the world is organizing craft party on June 10th? They are having one in Tokyo as well on June 11th, Saturday, in Shibuya. More details are here. I won’t be able to attend the craft workshops, but maybe will be stopping by later that day:)

    I had a go at your scallop skirt! It was the first thing I’ve ever sewn from a pattern!!

    OK for a first ever attempt, nowhere near as good as Casey’s obviously…

黒留袖のリメイクは私が大好きなもののひとつです🥹👌
黒地を背景にした鮮やかな柄はクリムトのアートを思い出させます🎨
こちらは華やかな花柄が映えるジャンプスーツにしました✨ 

✔ 一重仕立てで通気性抜群、夏も快適 
✔共布ベルト&丸バックルで愛らしいアクセント
✔アクセサリーが映える エレガントなVネック
✔ カシュクール風トップス

Upcycling a black tomesode kimono is one of my favorite things! 🥹👌 
The vibrant patterns against the black backdrop remind me of Klimt’s art. 🎨 

✔ Lightweight single-layer fabric, breezy for summer 
✔ Charming fabric belt & round buckle accent 
✔ Elegant V-neck, perfect for showcasing accessories 
✔ Kashkool-style top for a refined look 

Big thanks to @pepamoricet (model) and @carolinemarchante (photographer) 💕

From the front, it looks like a classic cache-coeur dress — but turn around, and there's a chic, round cut-out in the back.
Layer it with a jacket or cardigan for an easy everyday look🧥🌿
Features a V-neckline, subtle tucks at the waist, a clean I-line silhouette, and puff sleeves with an open back for a modern twist🌸

A stunning bustier featuring a bold red base with delicate gold maple leaf patterns.
This one-of-a-kind piece is crafted from upcycled obi fabric, adding a unique touch of Japanese tradition.

The soft, curved neckline creates a feminine, elegant silhouette.

Perfect for parties and special events, it’s sure to turn heads wherever you go.
It’s also a great way to subtly showcase Japanese culture during your travels abroad 🇯🇵✨

This piece makes a statement on its own, but you can also layer it for different vibes:
— Over a shirt for a vest-style look
— As an inner piece under a cardigan
— Or layered over a turtleneck sweater in winter for a chic seasonal outfit.

✔️ Note: Not washable, so it’s especially suited for autumn and winter 🍂
✔️ The back features a lace-up design with ribbon details—gorgeous from every angle 🎀

Dress it up for a party or dress it down with jeans for an effortlessly stylish look.
Enjoy styling this unique piece your own way 💫
