Embellish It!

Whether done with thread, beads, lace or sequins, embellishment adds a luxe texture and dimension to garments or accessories. Are you an embroidery maven or just an admirer? Check out some gorgeous examples including garments by Mary Katrantzou and Oscar de la Renta, as well as loads of tips and how-tos so you can get started.

Prada caught my eye for Spring with Miuccia’s kooky banana prints, but it was this fantastic embroidery that really reeled me in.

Mary Katrantzou’s bold, graphic dresses stand on their own just fine, but when you get up close and see that some of the subtle details have been enhanced with embroidery and trim, it adds a whole new dimension to the beauty of her work.

British design duo Meadham Kirchoff are known for their signature “unfinished” look and added an ethnic vibe to their Fall 2011 collection with quirky embroidery in bright primary colors.

Speaking of ethnic flair, Oscar de la Renta is the king of gorgeous, culturally-influenced embellishment. Whether it’s embroidery inspired by South American textiles or intricate bead work reminiscent of chinoiserie, de la Renta knows how to enhance a pattern, graphic or silhouette with embellishment.

Florence Welch wore this stunning Givenchy Couture gown to the recent Grammy Awards ceremony. The embroidery and applique work is incredible, I can only image what this piece looks like up close.

Chanel’s expert seamstresses and artisans come together to make some of the most intricate and amazing couture pieces in the world. A few weeks ago I posted links to the documentary Signe Chanel and if you want a birds eye view of the painstaking process of creating couture, I definitely recommend carving out some time to watch this flick. It’s also interesting to note that an old superstition says if you weave a single strand of hair into the wedding dress you are embroidering, you will be married within the year.

From episode 4 of Signe Chanel, watch how quickly the embroiderers do their work! Amazing!

Embroidery is a great way to add a personal touch to garments you already own, or take ones you are making to the next level. Whether you’re just getting started or are well in the know, I’ve pulled together a few links to aid the process and maybe even teach you something new!

Making Button Rings + Comment to Win a Copy of "Button Ware"!

There’s no way around it, buttons are magical. They are both commonplace and remarkable, functional and decorative. Did you know that, even though buttons appear as far back as 2000 BC, the buttonhole did not appear until the thirteenth century? Before that, they were solely for show. They’ve been made of wood and metal, plastic and bone, rubber and mother of pearl.

And I love each and every one of them! From vintage to modern, outrageous to simple, button collecting has become one of my favorite creative addictions. Sorting through bins of buttons at a flea market, and discovering the ones that I cannot live without, is truly one of my greatest sources of inspiration. So much so that, a few years ago, I decided to share my button passion via a book, Button Ware. In it we provided over thirty different projects that transformed buttons into all manners of jewelry–bracelets, necklaces, pendants and more. One of those projects I’d like to share with you today – making button rings. They are wonderful accessories…and so incredibly easy to make.

Rather than drawing diagrams for something this simple, I’ve produced a short, simple video on the making of button rings. Head over to the “Learning” section here and take a look.

Two things to remember when you start this project. First, finding the right mix of buttons is key. Mix and match vintage with new, patterned with solids. As I mentioned before, you can always find buttons at flea markets, in your grandmother’s attic and the like.

Lastly, if you’re looking for a creative boost to get started, you can always start with our Button Ware book and use buttons from our partner, JHB. For years, JHB has been making some of the most creative and stylish buttons you will find anywhere. While they only sell to wholesale accounts on their Web site, they do provide a link to retailers that carry their buttons. You can see that list here.

Making button jewelry is a wonderfully simple way to both recycle vintage goods into something stylish and engage your creativity. Once you get started, I’m sure we’ll be seeing each other over a bin of buttons one of these days.

- – -
For my BurdaStyle readers only, I’m giving away a copy of my book, Button Ware. Tell me about some of the more remarkable one’s you’ve found…or about your favorite one…or about something you’ve made using vintage or unique buttons…and you could be the winner of the book. Please leave your comments by 9:30 am EST on Wednesday, February 16th to be eligible to win!

10 New Patterns + Looks to Inspire Them

There are certain patterns that are just classics— from them you can build a wardrobe you could hold on to for decades. A bustier, a pencil skirt and a cropped jacket make for a fun retro look, and by changing the fabrics, you can update these classic silhouettes so easily. Read on to see them all!

Who loves the 50s? Who loves flirty, feminine shapes that accentuate your curves and amp up sex appeal. I think all of the patterns below have potential.

A fitted bustier top can be a super fun staple to have in your wardrobe. Made in rich silks or cotton, a bustier can amp up your favorite skirt or jeans. You can turn this pattern into a dress too by fusing it with a skirt pattern.

A voluminous, gathered skirt feels very 50s and feminine. Pictured above are some inspirational pieces by Azzedine Alaia, Zac Posen, Kalanchoe (Modcloth), and TopShop. We offer two options here: the fitted bustier dress with sleeves, and a tank version.

A fitted pencil skirt hugs the hips and accentuates the waist, it’s the ultimate sexy-skirt. Depending what type of fabric you use to make it in though can really change the attitude of the look. Burberry, Giambattista Valli and Rick Owens do the pencil skirt so well. We have two pencil skirt options here as well: the stretch pencil skirt and a classic pencil skirt for wovens. If you love the top the model on the right is wearing, check out this fitted top pattern to pair with it.

Cropped blazers can be worn with dresses and jeans. They can dress you up or tie a look together. Be like Coco Chanel in a silk tweed cropped jacket, or more streamlined in navy or black suiting. Again, we have two options: one cropped jacket with invisible closure and the other has is a cropped jacket buttons. Alice + Olivia, Asos, Alexander McQueen blazers.

This coat to me say Jackie-O. It’s sweet and innocent and fun to wear. Cut from camel colored wool you have a sophisticated coat that stands out against all the black outerwear out there. Cut from a chunky knit, this coat can be a big, cozy wrap. If you’re not ready to dive into a coat project yet, try the 3/4 sleeve blouse for an easier alternative.

Iris Van Herpen - 3D Printed Couture

Last Friday for my weekly roundup of all things cool, crafty and fashionable I added a link to designer Iris van Herpen’s “Escapism Couture” collection which she debuted at Paris Couture Week back in January. I thought van Herpen’s collection was too amazing to just be a link, so I decided to dig deeper and share with you a little bit more about van Herpen and her amazing 3D printed couture creations. Learn more after the jump!

After studying fashion design at ArtEZ in the Netherlands, van Herpen went on to work with both Alexander McQueen and Claudy Jongstra (a design studio in the Netherlands focusing on felt fabrics and specializing in interior decoration, wall hangings and coverings, and tapestries). In 2007 van Herpen launched her own collection and has since won a slew of Dutch design awards and exhibited her work in Germany, London, Tokyo and Paris.

Although at first glance it seems as though her creations are better suited to look at than to wear, van Herpen says that movement is an important factor in her work and that her designs both manipulate and suggest new manners between natural mobility and tension. Van Herpen believes that fashion should be an artistic expression, not simply functional and commercial and you can see that mantra vividly come to life in her designs.

For her first Couture showing in Paris, van Herpen partnered with architect Daniel Widrig and rapid prototyping production company MGX by Materialise to create her second 3D printed collection entitled “Escapism Couture”. Using a nylon polymide material, van Herpen’s designs were 3D printed and then finished off with either selective laser sintering (for the white pieces) or black lacquer. Van Herpen says the collection is a response to our increasing addiction to the digital world, how we use it as an escape from our day-to-day “reality” and how ultimately our future will be the blending of both nature and technology – melding what’s to come with what has been.

At The Show: STUDY NY

This week I went to the fashion presentation of Ecco Domani “Sustainable Design” winner Tara St. James of STUDY NY . Have you heard about the Ecco Domani Fashion Foundation? It’s a wonderful organization geared towards launching exiting new fashion and accessory lines. Read on to see more of the show!

We walked into The Highline Ballroom at the Standard Hotel, and were instantly encapsulated by an amber-y scent wafting through the air. It turns out Tara created a signature Study NY scent with perfumer Amanda Walker. The scent is actually a lightweight luxurious blend of organic ginger, cedar, basil, allspice, clove & other rare botanicals— according to Amanda of A Perfume Organic. The smell, which reminded me of my amber-wearing-days in high school, complimented the platform stage with models standing amongst old-school classroom desks, and a large teacher’s desk at center front, covered with bright red apples.

The collection, made up of earth-toned, a-symmetric silhouettes cut from vegetable-dyed silks and organic cotton knits, recycled wool and some pieced together plaids and florals, was new yet familiar— like something you may have found hanging in a vintage shop or your grandmother’s closet. I covet clothing that feels like it has a story, or a history. Clothing that looks like it’s been created with love, by an artist’s hands. I heard someone say that Tara’s mother was an inspiration behind the collection. The richly dyed textiles and voluminous, drop-shoulder tops reminded me too of my mother in the late 80s (if that is what was being referenced at all).

From STUDY NY’s NOT JUST A LABEL bio: “Believing that open source material plays a strong role in the development of the sustainable design community, St James started Study Hall in the summer of 2010. Under her guidance, Study interns developed, produced and sold their own sustainable mini collections. Study Hall can now be found at several retailers in New York City and abroad. She is very open about her production and design process and documents these regularly here on her blog.” Find out more about Study NY in a special interview at Refinery29.

What do you think about this sustainable collection? Do you see eco-fashion taking over? Are more designers becoming conscious of their carbon footprint? What do you do to be sustainable? For more images click here.

Comment to Win with Yvette Stanton!

Comment on the blog or on Twitter for your chance to win “The Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion” and “The Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion,” written by Yvette Stanton!

Book Description: In early 2010, “The Left-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion: a step-by-step stitch dictionary” was released to great acclaim and to the relief of the 10-15% of embroiderers who are left-handed.

With over 170 embroidery stitches demonstrated step-by-step with diagrams and text for each step, left-handed stitchers finally have the stitch dictionary they have been craving. However with its huge popularity, right-handers felt left out, and so “The Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companion” was published to stop the jealousy!

Yvette Stanton is an Australian embroidery designer, teacher and author. She has written five step-by-step needlework books, and the Left-Handed and Right-Handed Embroiderer’s Companions are her latest two. Yvette is passionate about Whitework embroidery, and loves playing with embroidery stitches. For more information, visit her website, and check out her daily blog, White Threads!

Until Tuesday, February 22nd, you can one of these truly informative books. One right-handed person and one left-handed person will be selected! To enter, answer the following question: What type of embroidery design would you like to create? Also, please mention if you are left-handed or right-handed! For some great inspiration, check out these great embroidery projects from members tincorin, asiamc and fleurdeternite

When submitting an answer via Twitter, be sure to include the @BurdaStyle tag and the hashtag #comment2win

Good Luck!

- David

P.S. – Congratulations to McKenzie St George, who won our contest with Mark Cesarik and Free Spirit Fabrics

Where are you from and/or where do you live?

I was born and raised in California. I moved to Montana when I was 17, where I went to college at the University Montana Western. I moved to Philadelphia two years ago, and I reside in the area currently. Right now I am working on going back to finish my education. I was a fine arts major at UMW, but I took some time off to decide what I really want to do. My main focus is in photography, and in Philly there are so many amazing schools that specialize in the arts. I’m looking into going to Moore right now.

How did you start sewing?

My mom was the main influence for my love of sewing. She would make my Halloween costumes every year, and they were absolutely amazing works of art. She took me to my first sewing lesson at JoAnn’s fabrics when I was about eight years old. They made us make these really terrible hot pink Hawaiin print cross-backed tank tops and matching shorts that nobody in their right mind would ever wear in public, even a fashion conscious eight year old. By the time I hit middle school, I started going to sewing classes better suited for me, because it was more like a sewing circle where you could make whatever you wanted, and have help if you needed it. I probably spent a good part of the summer before 8th grade perfecting how to make miniskirts.

Teensie tiny tinybows!

3. Describe your personal style in 5 words or less

Oh my…I’d say that my personal style is eclectic, vintage, heavy-metal, kitschy and carnivalesque.

4. Where do you get inspired? Do you have a style icon?

David Bowie. I love his unique and crazy flair for fashion. I also love Marlo Thomas when she was in the show That Girl. I pretty much sit there watching the show and drooling over all the clothes she wears because they’re pretty much my dream wardrobe. I also get very inspired by John Water’s films, Victorian era fashion, combat boots, Mystery Train, ukuleles, photography, Blythe dolls, Ghost World… Basically all the things I love serve as inspiration. When I need an extra boost, I usually turn to music. Within a ten minute span I’ll go from doom/sludge/grindcore right to dancing around to Patience & Prudence. And then I go and sew a pretty punk rock party dress to wear with my combat boots. I like to mix things that are very opposite, but somehow come together to work very well.

Tinybow’s eclectic Inspiration

5. What time of year do you find yourself most creative?

My creativity tends to peak the most in the winter. Summer is too distracting. There are bikes to ride, places to explore, pictures to be taken. Winter is perfect for sewing and being creative in general. Besides, it’s so lovely outside, why not draw from that?

6. What’s your sewing experience like?

I finally moved into a decent sized apartment, so I finally have room to sew! It’s terribly exciting. I like to set up my little portable record player whenever I sew since it really gets me going. Lately, my sewing soundtrack has been a lot of Nancy Sinatra and Gary Numan. I sew in my dining room since it rarely gets used for dining. It has all these cute little nooks to stash sewing supplies in! I usually tend to sew in the afternoon. Sometimes I go on crazy coffee benders with the sheer notion that I will finish a project while catching up on Doctor Who at three in the morning. You never really know when I’m going to be sewing next.

Her sewing nook

What is your dream sewing project?

I would like to get around to making myself this coat I saw on That Girl. It’s orange and white and closes with this cute little bow. I dream about that coat nightly. I love bows so much.

How long have you been a member of BurdaStyle?

I joined on June 15, 2010. I was searching for some kind of sewing community when uninspired and came across BurdaStyle in the process. I adore this site. I love that you can share your projects and look at what other people are doing. It’s a very cool process. And it’s really nice to get feedback on all of your hard work. I also love that you can check out techniques and fun projects that the site has to offer. I probably visit the site oh…maybe at least 7087098709487042 times a day? It rivals with how many times I check my Facebook. And that’s quite a lot.

Champagne at Midnight Dress and Inspiration

What is the most frustrating thing about sewing for you? What is the most rewarding?

I really have troubles getting things to fit properly the first few times. Luckily, I got a new dress form for Christmas to replace my old one I made out of duct tape and an old Belle and Sebastian tshirt. I’m pretty sure that thing was eating my pins. I also have always hated cutting out patterns. It’s the biggest mess! There is literally paper everywhere and folding them back into the envelope? Forget about it. I ended up putting all my used pattern pieces in those huge freezer baggies to avoid having to struggle. The most rewarding aspect of sewing is getting to wear my creations! It’s so cool to wear clothing that you made yourself. I’m pretty punk rock when it comes to fashion. If you can’t make it yourself or buy it at a thrift store and make it your own, why bother? I also love the support I get from my friends. I’ve already got people wanting custom made dresses, and that’s a treat!
