For the Fall 2017 preview, and a featured outfit in the 6th Annual Detroit Doll Show, this re-creation was an amazing adventure, from sketch to finish! It will appear shortly at eBay and direct sell, as well a feature in the Holiday 2017 Brochure.
When I spied the original outfit on the net, it immediately screamed 'fall and shopping'. One of the things I love to do during the fall is visit the orchard's, and thus the sketch-work for a re-creation began!
Instead of an "UGG" style boot from the original conception (which are arriving in the Holiday Catalog 2017), I decided to go with a short combat boot in caramel vegan leather matched with a Commuter Purse (#10313).
This outfit was not difficult at all to design since all of my pattern pieces are a mixed compilation from other patterns I constructed this year, like the leggings and the tunic top. The top started out as a tank in the original outfit, sold on eBay, Relaxing Summer Outfit, with a few more left in the series. I reconstructed it to produce long sleeves and lowered the hem to hip length. This tunic can offer an option as a dress when extended more towards the knee.
The leg warmers are from a draft I composed in 2015, while playing around with a Flashdance movie motif. In order to be fashioned to be worn comfortably over leggings, I widened the tube.
Most of the materials used here in Farmer's Market Day hail from Fashion Fabrics Club, except for the purse and boots fabric, purchased at JoAnn Fabrics.
You will see many variations between the inspiration and the Farmer's Market Day version by Beauty of Creating, where I also included a farmer's tote and shop props to authenticate a real shopping experience. Instead of the big side ponytail Kyla wears a high knot bun.
The look is completed with crystal stud earrings and a sterling silver triplet french rope necklace.
