Bunny Tailcoat........
begin the adventure with a simple 70s coat.....
cut away parts that are not needed, and add lots of lace.
Pour out those cans of buttons and sew many on.
Make a pin of lace and vintage and a key with a heart.
Alice or the Rabbit?
or did you have another dream in mind?
the back has a french blue toile applique with a vintage shell button, long cotton fringe and blue edging, with lots of vintage lace.
The sides have tabs that close with antique abalone buttons......
to pull the waist in a bit....
the lining is sheer matching satin, and I added an inside pocket. The outside pocket is turned askew since it all has to do with new perspectives, anyway......
This pocket has lace, stitching in blue, lots of cotton fringe and a odd vintage googley button.
I changed the collar around so you can button it up......or leave it open........
