Description

Though it only appeared onscreen for the briefest of moments, this was Little J's take on an elegant cover-up to take her straight to the Ambassador's Dinner and show up Damien. Making your own is easy, just by adding multiple safety pins to a blazer in need of a makeover.

Instructions

  1. Small step1 1290689910

    Start by inserting a couple safety pins in a fan-shape at one of the side-seams of the blazer, right where it hits your waist. Try not to push the safety pins through the jacket lining.

  2. Small step2 1290689925

    Add more safety pins in-between the first row.

  3. Small step3 1290689930

    Keep alternating placement as you fan out from the side and create a "starburst" pattern.

  4. Add a few larger safety pins near the edges.

  5. Small step4 1290689945

    Repeat for the other side of the blazer.
