I've made quite some Ziggy's before and doing a Ziggy Stardust version has been on my list for some time now. The glitter theme seemed to be the best moment to finally realise this plan.
I had a bit of an argument with the grey jersey I used (an upcycled sweatshirt), it's quite thin and stretchy and we had different ideas when it came down to the hemming, but it turned out all right. Not the most neat looking hem I ever did, but it will do.
The lightning bolt is painted in a glitter textile paint and consists out of tiny coloured glitters in a transparant paint. A fun experiment!
See you next week for signature style time!
David Bowie is the perfect inspiration for glitter week! This is such a cool top.
