For this project, I decided to make a USSR School Pioneer Dress for the student of 1940. And I am satisfied with the final results, so I think I will mark myself 9 out of 10. Also, it took me approximately 4 hours to make.
To be more specific about the topic, “The Vladimir Lenin All-Union Pioneer Organization abbreviated as the Young Pioneers was a mass youth organization of the Soviet Union for children and adolescents aged age 9–15 that existed between 1922 and 1991. Similar to the Scouting organizations of the Western Bloc, Pioneers learned skills of social cooperation and attended publicly funded summer camps”, Wikipedia.
For this work, my main inspiration was my mother, who had a chance to wear such a dress in her young years too, so I can confidentially state that she curated me in this process.
Also, I want to show you a couple of examples of how it “originally” looked like.
