Henkiby *Aamunodottaja

Artisan Crafts / Textiles / Other

This is a school project -thingie I made at the beginning of this year. And to what I was cursing, if you happen to remember. The title is Henki (which I came up with the last minute, again) which could be translated to English as either life, wraith, ghost, spirit, atmosphere, breath, soul, and etc.

I made this thing mostly from recycled materials we got to dig from Kontti's trash cans ("yay"), except the gauze (used in the corset and the bustle), wire mesh and plastic bones. The things I got were pretty much torn up already, so I thought what the heck and tore everything in to pieces and bits and sewed them together.

I was inspired by the Victorian period and we had "Utopia and homecoming" as the theme. I think. The corset is see-trough because of the material, so I wouldn't use it right away... Well, I'd have to have a figure of about 90-50-100 cm (35,5-19,5-39,5 inch) to be able to pull this off. So, yeah.
