Waterfall bolero for Jackie Pipe
finished bolero on stand
Jackie commissioned me to design and make her a bolero to wear with the dress she had found for her daughter's wedding. The bolero was made with a waterfall collar and shaped cuffs on three quarter length sleeves. The bolero was fully lined and all the frills were edged with self bias-binding for a neat finish.
Guide Price: £160
Basic making (6 hours) £132
Jackie bought the silk herself but for something similar you should
budget around £20 plus £10 for sewing thread, lining, etc
