Stop, Collaborate, and Listen
I've been in long-term cohoots with a fantastic duo who have came up with a really exciting idea. I'm not going to tell you who they are*, but it rhymes with Bafterhours. Remember my boy-cut brief pattern? Well this is what it looks like actually printed onto fabric!
All you have to do is cut around the edges...
And sew them all straight up with a contrasting or coordinating trim.
Behold, a glorious selection of boy cut briefs.
Ready to bedeck even the most generous of bums with their magical anti-wedgie properties.
Hyperbole aside, I'm really excited about this collaboration. Some time in the autumn, you'll be able to buy boy-cut brief kits that come complete with several different funky designs on super soft interlock, coordinating trims, and of course the instructions to sew them up. I love the prints they've designed especially for the briefs, and I'm particularly enamoured with the retro rainbows and revisionist Union Jacks.
*Okay, I will tell you. It's Crafterhours! Following on from their mucho-successful 'I Spy' project of Spoonflower designer-led fabric collections, they're branching out into other awesomeness. There are other kits on the horizon (another of which I will share shortly), but also labels, prints, drawer-stickers... and Union Jack panels with which you can do this...
To a Dolman tee no less. Once they are all ready to go, I'm hoping to offer the kits to you British and European types through my own shop.
love it - what a great idea! now if you can just introduce a disney princess range...
