I am writing this while a take a rest on my current master project. So what have I been doing lately, you ask? I am making dresses for dolls that will be displayed on my sister's wedding. I have made 2 sets already and 2 more on the way. What I have are 15 inch dolls of Cony and Brown from Naver Line stickers. You know? The messaging app made by a Japanese organisation that is a big hit in Asia, at least, or so I think.
Its a tradition (or gimmick but its fun so shut up) in Hong Kong to have 2 dolls
to represent the bride and groom. So I found Line Dolls and thought I will dress them up instead. You can get wedding dolls easily but I guess it will be more creative and personal to do it for my sister. Now, why 4 sets you ask? Its because my sister has 4 outfits on the banquet so I thought it will be clever and fun that when my sister comes out the dolls too has a costume change.
So. I've done the traditional white wedding dress and tuxedo set. By the way, Cony is the bride and Brown is the groom. You might have caught it on my opening theme video but I have added a couple more stuff since I took that picture. The second set I made are Red themed dresses. So Cony is in a red rose inspired couture dress and Brown is in a red Willy Wonka outfit complete with glasses and cane. Making Cony's dress is easier because I made her dresses sleeveless while Brown has tuxedo and suits. Thank goodness! I was clever enough to buy him in an office attire look; saves me the effort of making pants as well.
What's next are the Chinese themed wedding dresses, I'm not gonna go super creative or couture on it; at least right now because I haven't started on it yet. The other set I am currently working on is a purple Russian inspired look for Brown paired with a peacock green sexy dress for Cony. But how will I sew feathers you ask, apparently you can get them at the store and they sew it onto a a lace ribbon so you can sew it to any fabric you like or together over the lace ribbons.
I am having a lot of fun doing this project but I am tired so I will continue again tomorrow.
