😲 These grounds are gorgeous!!Noting this place for a visit at some point. (But also that last statue kind of looks like a young Julie Andrews?? 🤔)

The latest jacket design I’ve been working on—this is the V2 mockup. The pocket placement is drawn on while I work on finessing the fit so I don’t have to sew pockets into every version.

Modern Wizard Apparel @modernwizard.bsky.social · 23/10/2025

Thanks! That’s the part that was giving me the most trouble. Finding the balance for an overlayer to be loose/low enough to wear over a variety of sleeve types without looking sloppy.

010

Modern Wizard Apparel @modernwizard.bsky.social · 23/10/2025

A little sneak peek of a new design in progress! Still needs some minor pattern tweaks before I start on the size grade testing, but this is a very promising working sample. I also gotta source a cord for the drawstring…

The last Scout Hat colour sample is complete! Finally timed myself on how long this takes to build, so with that final bit of info I can complete a costing analysis to get these on the store! Huzzah!

Making some last tweaks to the visor pattern for the Scout Hat. Fixing that sad, slouchy band. Version 2.0 looks much improved.

If I hadn’t only just gotten over being sick 😭 I’m going to keep this in mind for next year…

We’re at mock-up ver. 4, but I think I’m getting close! Still working out some of the fit issues, but at this point I’m now expert-level at sewing those bean inserts.

Picked up some new accessories for some upcoming shoots I’m planning.

Quilted vest sample is turning out excellently! Lookit that top-stitching! Still needs some tweaks though. Not sure what fabric the final will be? This one is made from some leftover cottons from my cosplay days.

Modern Wizard Apparel @modernwizard.bsky.social · 19/03/2025

This vest sample is my current hyper fixation. Excited to do the top-stitching on the quilted layers.

Modern Wizard Apparel @modernwizard.bsky.social · 10/03/2025

Now that’s a goddamn hat. Heck yeah! 🔥😎🔥

Modern Wizard Apparel @modernwizard.bsky.social · 10/03/2025

Cool hat project is complete!! …just in time for it to be too warm to wear it. 😭 I’m so happy with the details on this piece.

Modern Wizard Apparel @modernwizard.bsky.social · 04/03/2025

This is mock-up 3 of my newest shirt design! Those bean details are looking much closer to how I envisioned, & I’ve improved at sewing them too. Still needs work in the shoulder area—unfortunately Minerva here is not equipped with arms, so I need to find a real human to use for fit testing.

I would like to move in immediately. 😲

Modern Wizard Apparel @modernwizard.bsky.social · 22/02/2025

My buckle order has arrived! I’m thinking that middle guy is going to be the right choice for the cool hat project.

TBT! MW-004 LITTLE WITCH DRESS - A first collection design (retired) & the start of my thumbhole sleeve obsession! I liked the secret pockets at the base of the contrast panels. All dresses should be equipped with pockets. Photos by Mike Kowalek @splatvision.bsky.social Modelled by Sierra Boake

Mum always said the specific pasta shape name in an Italian accent, so I'm pretty sure my childhood experience was atypical

Modern Wizard Apparel @modernwizard.bsky.social · 07/02/2025

Alas, no plans for a wizard hat just yet!

As a designer, nothing gives me greater joy than hearing that my clothes speak to people ❤️

Cool sci-fi hat is still in product development stage--most likely will be adding this onto the store in the fall!

Modern Wizard Apparel @modernwizard.bsky.social · 06/02/2025

That version of those pants sadly never made it into production, so the "nefarious deeds" you would have to do to own them would probably be breaking into my house to steal the sample. 😈 I did eventually redesign them in a stretch material though, which I now make in that good good caramel colour. 😉

TBT! MW-003 DRUID TUNIC - Still the record holder for the most failed mockups (12) I've ever made in the quest for the perfect hood. Nearly beat by the time I tried to reinvent this same tunic but with a raglan sleeve. Photos by Lenore Irwin @elementalsight.bsky.social Modelled by Sierra Boake

Hat progress! Finishing off the visor today--the bias edge finish turned out beautifully & I am very happy with the topstitching. You can't see his face in the fitting pic, but know that he had a big smile.

Inventory hell is over! Now the store is restocked & open for Made-to-Order! ...Unless you want to order any pants in black. In which case you're going to have to wait until later this month when I restock my fabric.
