Titania!

Chance meeting with Helena in the studio's resulted in getting the first glimpse of the toille for Titania's 'skirt'. This is a skirt, but it is to be attached onto the body suit in such a way that is seems to be growing out of her rather then simply attached to her. After putting it on the practice body suit kindly made up for us by Lucy, I was able to correct a misconception from the design. Whereas the skirt Helena had created was flat at the front, on the design there were gathers at the side that ruched the front. However, with the colours and tone in the design these were difficult to discern. This is one of the reasons it is so important for makers and designers to have a close working relationship. After I had shown Helena what I wanted, she was quickly able to modify the toille so that this will be something she can fix before the initial fittings and save time.
