      Vogue 9230, Marcy Tilton.  100% cotton, 12 oz.  from 4 pairs of men’s blue jeans.  On the front:   jeans’ waistband on placket front with brass snaps, belt loops with stitching from side seam holding down belt loops, sleeve hem is pants hem opened up and fussy cut (looks like shirbori), piece of hem frayed on collar, key pocket from front pants  above belt loops and back pocket on front.  Back snap detail is for design only.  Inside seams are all Hong Kong finished plus I added covered shoulder pads.

      This is so inspiring!  I love how you used various component parts of the upcycled blue jeans to create this. I won’t throw out any more blue jeans.
