In this article I will tell and show you how I sewed a Russian-style clown costume step by step. I created this costume for the honored circus artist Igor Vorobyov. He works as a Russian-style clown. When in a circus someone sews a costume in the Russian style, and no matter what genre the artist works in, then for some reason everyone uses Pavloposad shawls in the decor of the costume like a blueprint. It’s already so boring and uninteresting, especially since the artist’s previous costume was decorated with shawls, so I categorically did not want to use them in this costume. Despite the fact that I really like shawls, but it was in this costume that I wanted to do something new and non-standard for a circus costume, and how I did it - read this article 🙂.

In this article I will tell and show you how I gradually created the fabric in red and blue stripes from the dense satin “Scarlett”, which I needed for sewing trousers in the Russian style. In my work, I often have to create some pattern or texture on the fabric myself. Someone may say: “Isn’t it easier to buy fabric in a store?”. Unfortunately, it only seems to a beginner in this business that the fabric store has any fabric that your imagination desires. But in fact, it is difficult to find even an elementary striped fabric in a store 🙁. I don’t just want a red and blue striped fabric, I want a thick satin that doesn’t leave any tangles, it needs to have a nice sheen, not a cheap one. Red and blue color should have a rich hue, not faded or dark. In addition, I need a strip of a certain width: about 2.5 - 3.5 cm, no less and no more. Therefore, there is no other choice but to create the fabric I need with my own hands 😃.
