About 18 months ago I refashioned a series of costume inspired garments, some of them with a steampunk vibe, including several Victorian inspired peplum jackets.
I found that the best method of adding a peplum to a jacket was to cut the jacket around the waistline, then construct the peplum by adding panels of contrast fabric, and then stitching back on the the original jacket.
More jackets on my blog here.
Happy stitching everyone x

Wow, that looks amazing. Gorgeous with the different fabric as contrast.

Thanks Chickie, I used panels cut from skirts for the contrast panels and trim, always nice when garments in the stash co-ordinate well!!
Those are so fun! Thanks for sharing.
