My Wedding dress from China Clothes on Demand

Just so you know ...it can be done to have Clothes on Demand

Here is my wedding dress custommade. This dress is made in China and I had it made to my size and all.

Clothes On Demand

This type of figure hugging jacket helps show off the natural curves of your body. It does a particularly good job of emphasising hips, so this will fit very well with those with neat hips. This is great news for those with a neat or full hourglass figure, as the jacket will tuck in neatly to your defined body and help emphasis your shape.

If you are doubtfull as to your bodytype I found this:

I haven´t tried it. But it seems ok. And proves that the cuts/patterns are outthere.

My results nr. 1

Your Complexion

Your overall complexion is quite dark, so the main thing to be mindful of is to not wear black on its own, or at least pair it with odark shades including dark-brown and aubergine during the day, or royal purple for a more sophisticated look. However, to balance out your look, look to wear strong, dark colours very close to your face, and then contrast them with lighter or brighter colours from your additional colour palette.
Be careful! Although you can wear two dark colours and one light, or even one dark and one light - never wear two light colours as it will severely unbalance your complexion. This may be difficult in warmer climates where pastel shades may be more comfortable, however try not to wear such tones exclusively and always offset with a dark or bright colour to create a strong contrast.
When choosing colours from your palette, don't be shy and feel free to create good amounts of contrast such as lime, turquoise or emerald with stone or tauple. Do ensure to wear the strongest colours in your outfit close to your face, but if you do end up wearing lighter colours here - balance it out with deeper coloured make up to prevent yourself looking washed out.

Clothes on Demand Campaign Today entry nr. 2

In fairness to the shops I am trawling at the moment I here added some dresses of diffent cuts and color/prints but they are all in silk which is one of the most comftable materials there are.

Clothes on Demand Campaign

Todays search for a good quality dress and jacket continues at

http://www.curvety.com/

NOTE ....or ...Alarm ...Sale in on at curvety for the plusgirl

Material:

Material: Rayon Viscose/Elastane

I am certain I think this is a day dress. As it seems a bit fancy.

Other sugguestion:

But the materials are an issue. Escapcially is the weather is hot or you work in an office.

Either I am blind or IT blind because I didn´t find any jackets at all. So no jacket reveiw possible.

Wide calf boots sale: ONE style boot only in black...don´t be fooled.

Entry: Clothes on Demand.

So we continues our search for a quality dress and jacket with great detailing and nice material that feel and look great.

We are at:

At first I was like....yes - this one  I would like to review this one. I like it in grey.....But the joke was on me. This is from their normal collection.

I can have this one

Well you say: that isn´t different.

Oh yes...I can only have it black- so the grey which I like - is not for me. Major let- down.
Secondly the samo - samo:

Materials:90% Polyester, 10% Elastane  and it is black.

First up: There wasn´t one jacket I really like. This one came the closest.But if this is the figurhugging jacket they can offer. I am not interested.

Note on many figurhugging jackets there is a cut under the chest or breast to snuggle the jacket in and give some curves. That is not the case here.

Material: 100% Polyester

So yet a polyester adventure and not that much though to the cut. Hmmmmmm.

Campaign nr. 2 "Clothes On Demand Now"

As some of you know I have been surprised or annoyed by the fact that I know you can have your customized clothes pattern made for you by a computer -program within 15 min. Then another machine cuts it and the yet another machine sews the clothes. So !

Why are we consumers not able to get "Clothes On Demand"?  Granted every little shopkeeper can not have 3 large computeroperated machines in their backstore. But most shops are nowadays large franchines and could have the machines place around the world in central operated places.

"Well I wouldn´t know what I would look like in that XX?" you say

Aha ...we could have one size (like we have now) and/or color in the stores to try on. And then get it costumized....Because not all of us want blue jeans mayby we would want pink jeans. Or bright orange.

"Well large coperations can´t have some many different options on hand?"

Not true go to your local market and look in a sewing shop. It is possible to have different fabrics or colors on deman.

"It will cost the jobs of a bunch of seemstresses" Hello It allready is....So if one company were to keep seemstresses for finishing touches. It would rather keep jobs then loose jobs.

So please join "Clothes On Demand"
