In this way, you can not only update the vest or other thing, but also create an imitation of fur on almost any fabric.
This master class is about how to turn a simple classic vest into a vest with "fur" shelves, but in fact this decoration method can be used much more widely. You can make a "fur" decorative pillow, scarf, decoration for clothes or a plaid - there are many options. And the effect may be different, depending on what materials for decoration to choose. This master class used 3 boas from marabou, fluffy, but on a thin basis - the material should be such that it was convenient to sew to the fabric and the place of attachment would not be too noticeable. You can take, for example, braid from ostrich feathers or braid from natural fur. Of course, the “fur” from feather boas and from fur braid will turn out different - you can train on a shred to understand the final effect.
