Today I am sewing a vintage suit inspired by an outfit Alan Cumming wears in traitors and Dior's New Look. I am making the suit out of a lamé and using two patterns. One is an hour glass shaped jacket from Gertie's Charmed Sewing Studio book and the other is a circle skirt from vintage pattern McCall's 4158.
