Pierrot
Description from designer’s website:
A white-faced Pierrot clown would normally be dressed completely in white but Jean’s version is more colourful with contrasting bright pink pom-pons, picot edges and shoes. The ‘smock’ could have been quite complicated, with a front and back, shoulder and neck shapings, plus the sleeves. Yet Jean makes it all so easy. The body section of the smock is worked as one piece then the top edge is simply gathered around the neck. The one-piece sleeves (the arms) are sewn to the sides of the smock and the body, thus you can achieve a perfect smock effect every time.
