Latex Workshop berlin (more photos of the garment to come after it's been properly cleaned)

Been back a couple of weeks now,
I had a great time
when I was away I did a course with LatexWorkShops
The organizer was so lovely and very damn patient.

We started at half 8, doing some examples of how to bond latex, straight, on curves and doing ruffles.
How to add buttons and how to fix patches.


Then I got to make my very own paneled dress, for that I made my own pattern and then went to marking it up on the latex and cutting it out.


Once I had done that it was a case of cleaning the seams I needed to glue, this was interesting because on normal garments you always put things right sides together but with latex garments your places wrong side to right side because you see the seam on the outside and it lays flat.

then waiting till that was dry (which is important)  then applying glue to those clean edges then letting them dry till tacky then attaching all your pieces together.


I do not recommend having long nails for this at all (I'm never usually one to have long nails but I just sorta let them grow up and I found attaching the garment together hard till I cut them with scissors cause you really need to be able to feel the garment more than look at it when binding it together.

It took me a whole day to make this beauty (with help)
But I finally made it, had a well-deserved pizza and chill afterward.


Now I'm on the hunt for sheets of latex to buy!
so I can make more things
Can't wait to make more latex things!!
