Clothing Combinations

So to the final post for Section One. I am going to try something out, it may all be discarded as too hard, too useless or too weird, but for now we will give it a whirl. Experimentation abounds here at the House of WR!

In section one I completed 9 garments: A purple wool coat, a purple jersey dress, a black wool coat, a red/black/beige jersey dress, a grey and black knitted jumper, a black wool floral skirt, a black wool floral top, a black tricot petticoat and a black wool knitted shawl.

The items are designed to fit together as four separate outfits but here we are going to see if there are any other possible combinations. And I am only going to accept combinations I have a 70% chance of actually wearing, so there will be no rigging the numbers, I promise.

To begin we have the four outfits as planned.

Then we have the other options:-

This is a definite no

This is a pretty unlikely, so no

Maybe somebody would wear this ... but not me.

I actually like this a lot and can see me definitely wearing this combination. 1!

I always thought this would work, and it does. 2.

I'm not actually keen on this one, the styles in coat & dress are too different, though I do love the shawl over the coat so maybe with a different set of clothes that might work.

Ok so now I am just being silly. I did however try the top over the two dresses, and actually quite liked the waistcoat look, but as I am extremely unlikely to wear them like this, they got consigned to the waste bin of history, but here is a wee sample for posterity.

I kind of like this idea but it's not my style however here as a couple more silly ideas that aren't too bad in execution ... opening my eyes to new ideas? Hmmm probably not in this case.

And finally the shawl which doesn't look too bad over any of the dresses, however it looks a bit much like the shawl I throw over my dress as I run up to the village to fetch the doctor for my da who is dying of the consumption ... so nah.

At final tally we have 9 items and 6 outfits, though I realise that adding a coat can hardly be considered a whole new outfit, but as I stand at the beginning of this venture I am going to extend myself some largess and call it six. Ok so there is a little rigging of numbers.
