The ruffled neckpiece - part 2

This is my second attempt at the Fabric Scrap Neckpiece. This version is all in black and gold, with more luxurious fabrics (silk, brocade... mesh? joking :P), and it was made for a shoot with this super glam London musician called Neave (check out his website - i'll post the images here afterwards).

This time I've added a gold chain and metal loops (from the hardware store). It came out with a sort of gothic/renaissance vibe - which again, was unintentional, but that's what experiments are for, inni't?

  1. It's dramatic & beautiful all rolled into one, well done.

  2. Love it! It's amazing how different the two pieces came across while still sharing the same basic shape...

  3. it surprised me as well! i think it's because this one has less layers - and the fabrics on the other one are thicker as well.

    it's funny how unpredictable these things can be :)

  4. It's great! I love the wicked stepmother from a fairy tale vibe it gives off.

  5. I have so many scraps of fabric. I'm still trying to figure out what to do with them. Thanks for the inspiration.

  6. I'm mad on neckpieces and this looks dope. Might have to turn my hand to something similar...
