Re: [h-cost] Banyan
I am using it in September at the aniversary of Gustavs Sk?l. We are going to be gathered a whole weekend, with breakfast two, and this is where i am going to use it. Bjarne, I just love it when you show off the things you've made for yourself. This one is really charming; the breakfast party is a great reason to have such a unique outfit, too. --cin Cynthia Barnes [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume

Re: [h-cost] Banyan
Hi, Yes i was considering one of these you mention, but i thoght this one was a little humouristic two. Besides embroidering a cap would be fun, but as i am only going to use this once, i wouldnt make two much of it. I am using it in September at the aniversary of Gustavs Skål. We are going to be gathered a whole weekend, with breakfast two, and this is where i am going to use it.

[h-cost] Banyan
I have a question. Its about the cut of a banyan. I dreamed about this for manny years, finally i have the oportunity to make it, because there is an event in september where i can use it at breakfast. I want to make my banyan in an oldfashioned 18th century cut, with t-shape and doubble breasted oriental closure at the neck. Today i drafted the doubble breast part, because i want to embellish it with 3 rows of silver bobbin lace and 2 rows in between the lace with an embroidered rose wreath. Now my question, would 49 cm be two much width of the doubble breast at the fot hem? The banyan is going to be made of shot silk taffeta, purple/green as a main collour, but the doubble breasted front is going to be a green shot taffeta, turquise blue/yellow like the cuffs and collar. The banyan is very simple in cut, only i am not sure if 49 cm of overlapping in the foot hem would be two much. Thanks for any inputs Bjarne ___ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume

Measure between armpits, and you will find a better guide. About 30cm. seems a better overlap.

Re: [h-cost] Banyan
Hi Suzi, Thanks for your input! I know its a lot, but its because i have it about 30 at the neck, but i increase the width from the neck to the hem. I want the banyan to have width at the hem, its not cut straight. But maybe you are right about it being two much?
