ive been workin on a mock up for the balmain jacket and its been quite hard. surprisingly giving shape to the shoulder isnt the hardest part, that was quite easy actually, because of the material, on nap it says its made from canvas and that fabric holds up the shape pretty good, the difficult thing is to give the 2piece sleeve sleeve a slim fit with the tricky cut on the shoulder-sleeve.

the picture shows how the normal princess cut bodice looks like(the red line), (im doing the black version but this one shows better the cuts and seams)but in the jacket the addition to make the volumen on the shoulder comes all the way to the sleeve, but is still part of the bodice and making a perfect fit sleeve is driving me nuts!
ill take a break go get some fresh air and continue with this later.
