CLUB SEAMSTRESS: NEKOE BUCKNER (UPDATES)
MEASUREMENT GUIDE (NEW)
MOCK-UP 1
This is a quick mock-up I came up with for me to know what measurements Nekoe needs when I'm measuring for #Louisiane1 Féminine and Masculine (designs below). I'm sharing this here for transparency and ease of use (between all of us). Please note, the following does not include the following two measurements (S4 & S5) but MOCK-UP 2 will have these and whatever else Nekoe says she needs. The following is for women (Féminine) but I'll create another for men when I hear back from Nekoe and update this section with images for both accordingly.
UPDATES FOR MOCK-UP 2 (NOT PICTURED BELOW)
• S4 bicep circumference
• S5 forearm circumference
Designs & Details
WOMEN & GIRLS // FÉMININE
OVERVIEW & SKETCH
We will use a black stretch velvet fabric with a skirt appropriate for figures/loops. Seamstresses: do not stone this dress; I want skaters to learn to stone their outfits.
FRONT // AVANT
SLEEVES: Each sleeve is long and comes to a point, where an invisible elastic cord is attached under the point to wrap around the middle finger of the skater. BODYSUIT: The shoulder seams will cover bra straps (1.5''-2'') and provide additional support. The décolletage is a wide V, ending at the skater's sternum. SKIRT: Attached to the skirt, elongating the torso with a curve downward, and a slightly shorter front than the skirt used in the back. Seamstresses: If images are needed, please use the comments below and I will reply accordingly.
BACK // ARRIÈRE
NECK: Boatneck, relaxed, covers bra and "droops" a little (about 8'' from hairline; SKIRT: Slightly longer than the front portion of the skirt.

MEN & BOYS // MASCULINE
OVERVIEW & SKETCH
We will use a black lycra or the same black stretch velvet fabric for the bodysuit. For the pants, same black velvet. Seamstresses: do not stone the bodysuit; I want skaters to learn to stone their outfits.
FRONT // AVANT
SLEEVES: Each sleeve is short, with half-inch rolled once or twice (seamstresses call; measurements refer to length after the roll. BODYSUIT: The collar is 1'' in height and leaves 2'' of space at the Adam's Apple; for the V neck, it extends to the armpit line (see image), which is more or less the sternum, and gets increasingly skinnier as it comes to a point. Seamstresses: If images are needed, please use the comments below and I will reply accordingly.
BACK // ARRIÈRE
Nothing to note.
