The ANTHOLOGY OF RAP Launch Party @ Type Books

So... a million moons ago, Kalpna asked me to help her modify a ginormous t-shirt to create a dress for her to wear to The ANTHOLOGY OF RAP Launch Party at Type Books that she was organising.

We met up a few weeks before the event to have a delicious lunch at St. Lawrence Market. Oh, and to discuss the reconstruction of said t-shirt:

front and back
And in typical procrastinator fashion, we didn't get to making the dress until the weekend before the event. Kalpna came over and worked on her playlist for the party while I sewed and made her try on the dress about 50 times before we decided it was good enough. Making something for someone else to wear is HARD (even if it is a simple tube dress. Pfft.)

Finished product and random photos from the event below:
