What a beautiful suit, els! And thank you for a wonderfully informative description of your creative process.

els, that is beautiful! Heck, your muslin is beautiful. Is there any way it could become a dickie inside a simple jacket? Seems a shame to waste it.
10/16/05 12:24 PM
Lovely! I want one!
10/16/05 12:34 PM
your pantsuit is out of this world! You are obviously, very talented and your beautiful garment is an inspiration to me. Sheskis

Oh, Els, it's absolutely gorgeous! I love the collar!
10/16/05 12:41 PM
Els, you're really above us all, the fit is better than that of the Armani suit and the color is magnificent.

WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW!
10/16/05 12:49 PM
Couture for sure!!!
10/16/05 1:05 PM

I admire your courage in tackling such a complex piece, and your skill in carrying it off so very well. Love the pictures of the details too. This is inspiring.
10/16/05 2:10 PM
Now *THAT* is what I aspire to. Fabulous. You are a master, Els.
10/16/05 2:11 PM
Els, that is breathtaking! I'm glad you posted the muslin of the collar too. It shows the detail even more than the silk/linen. -Ann

Wow, more beautiful than I could dream. The collar is incredible and the fabric excellent.

Els - Stunning ensemble and draped collar. Thank you for such a wonderful review which is a lesson in itself. You inspire me to strive for higher precision in my tailoring. Thank you!

Absolutely breathtaking! Wish I had your talent. Thanks for a fabulous review. Pam

Your skills and work are breathtaking. Thank you for such an insight into the drafting of a complex pattern.
10/16/05 6:09 PM
Thank you all for the flattering comments. I did add the pictures because most of you want to read a pattern review and because this suit is not made from a commercial pattern you would not be helped with a final picture of the outfit alone. So the only thing I could do to be of any help was making pictures to show you some of the details.
10/16/05 6:23 PM
This is fabulous. Thank you for sharing, we are so lucky to be able to see details of your creative process.
10/16/05 6:58 PM
Oh, els, thank you so much. This review is like a master class! Also, thank you for all the photos, especially the muslin for the collar! So beautiful! Thank you again -- you give us so much inspiration to keep working to improve our skills.
10/16/05 7:00 PM
What a gorgeous outfit. You are one talented lady.
10/16/05 7:20 PM
Wow! That suit is a show stopper! I echo the others when I say you are an inspiration!
10/16/05 8:47 PM
Totally wonderful!!! I wish I was your model.
10/16/05 8:56 PM
Oh my GOODNESS! I can only echo what drsue said- I wish I was your model. Absolutely lovely and your photos of the details in your reviews are something that I would like to print and sit with a cup of tea and just try to soak it all in. You really are a master. Thank you.

Wonderful suit. If I were rich, I'd keep you for my very own clothier and shower you with gold every time you made me something like that.
10/16/05 11:55 PM
I'm with Vibek - if only I was rich, I'd keep you busy too :) I love your jacket, and thank you so much for showing us all these details! Would you mind showing the flat pattern of the collar too? Glad to see you upgraded your rating to reflect reality!

Excellent job! Excellent review! I really enjoyed reading, and viewing your photos. Beautiful suit!

I'm speechless! The collar is absolutely amazing! Stunning! You truly are an inspiration. I hope someday I will have that much knowledge and skills. Absolutely stunning!
