Finished up two additional hoods in the smoked vinyl tonight. These are challenging to sew, and pretty much just an experiment to see what's possible with a material that is very different than the leather I'm used to working with. This mouth-only hood is number two of three:
It's kind of hard to see because my head form is rather dark, but these hoods are actually transparent. In the photos it looks a bit like smoked glass.
...and now you don't!
I don't think this vinyl would be durable enough to make something for resale - it wouldn't hold up to any kind of serious use. But for a special effect, or photo shoot, it promises to give a unique look. I can't wait to see these tested on a model.
