just look at this mesh you've made!


new project! this was designed and constructed for my pre-collection sewing class. getting closer! the idea here was a fusion of a sportcoat/blazer with the styling of a traditional denim jacket. obviously that was complicated enough, so i decided mesh panels were a must! i LOVE the neon mesh, but sadly, used up the last of it on this sample. gotta go find some more...









mesh inserts and double pockets!

















gotta keep the active male fashionably fresh

















back view. not sure about the checkerboard-effect with the mesh on the under sleeves and then on the upper back...

hehehehe genius! Honestly I have not seen the like before--makes me think of sporty millionaires sipping on Crystal and well, Mountain Dew at the racetracks in Monaco?

The checkerboard cutout? Yes keep it please! It's a charming structural element that gives it a delightful 'modern art' sort of edge, no?
