June 2016-RHS Chelsea Flower Show Skirt.

www.mandsmetalcraft.co.uk

We were commissioned by our customer Larry Walshe to manufacture a special skirt-
M&G Investments sponsor RHS Chelsea Flower Show.

Below is how we manufactured this:

 Paperwork and laying out 

Rough sketch and picture.

Rusty rods-this was important as the dress was to compliment the M&G garden designed by Cleve West.

Rusty Rods bent into the basic skirt structure.

Taking shape on the bench.

Completed main frame

Do not forget the sponsors logo!

 This rather strange waistband was worn by the model and the skirt was then attached to the chains in order to make it swing and hang correctly.

In The Times Newspaper! 

Below is the video produced by Larry Walshe-See the finished article with the flowers etc.
