After a big break I'm back in the groove. Sewing (and posting)again.
This lightweight coat has a coated denim body, organic cotton jersey sleeves and wool scarf/ hoodie and leather detail.
Organic unbrushed cotton pants with raw edges, drawstring waist and button up cuffs.
Cotton shorts with drop crotch and drawstring waist.
Double layer singlet and organic cotton beanie. (Channelling Sons of Anarchy here)
Of course grrl+dog took the photos. I'm listing them on Etsy and selling a few at the markets. It's kinda fun designing for two hemispheres at the same time.
It's taken a moment for us to recover from the loss of our dog and have gone from excessive drinking and lethargy to constant activity, early morning walks, obsessive cleaning and sorting. Each day gets a little better.
We also opened a shop together on Etsy called desmondandmollyjones. This is not a 'flog-blog',(cough cough) but check it out. It's full of all our junk wonderful vintage pieces and supplies. We are trying to list new items each day.
Stay tuned for the next post- I think it is time for a give-away.
Have a great week.

Good to see you're back on blogging. aven't been here long myself, but the dog news really made an impact.
Good luck with the new shop!
Now that's more than one....
Glad you are getting your mojo back! Great new shop:)
Hellooooooooo!
Off to look at you shop.
Glad to hear things are looking up, if but slowly...
Welcome back mojo, awesome new gear! I love your urban deconstructed vibe. But I'm thinking it must be a lot colder in Sydney than here in Perth!
The jacket is amazing!
I totally approve of your SOA channeling.
Glad to know that you guys are doing okay and that you are feeling like creating and posting again.
Such amazing style as alwas, Don! love to you and grrl as you move into new adventures. -sus
Every piece is fab. Glad to see your sewing again.
I love the jacket....simple yet edgy yet sort of classic all in one! I'm off to look at the flog-blog.
Great pieces! My jaw dropped when I saw the back of the jacket...very very cool styling~ Best wishes to you and grrl+dog!
Glad you are back posting and feeling better every day. Your designs are really amazing and of course Grrl's photography skills do them justice. Off to visit D&MJones...
Glad you're back and everything's coming good. I always like your designs - but that coat is fantastic!
Glad you're back! Losing a good friend is never easy.
Love the coat and the mixed materials!
I just love your style!
I love that coat! And I'm so sorry about Baxter. Hugs!
hi
If you're a fashion designer and you have a website or blog in english, you can make free self-advertising here pintalabios.info/en/fashion_designers
thanks :)
Glad you guys are feeling a bit better. Some cool pieces here and I love the stuff in the new Etsy shop. Keeping busy I see!
Your designs are fantastic. Have you considered selling outside of Etsy.. I genuinely believe there is a bigger market for your designs. They're so different from the usual run of the mill dross that's out there. Men deserve better and you can offer that. I often think it's a shame that the male fashion market is so limited. I think my son would appreciate a pair of those shorts.. he'd look great in them.. hope you've got them on Etsy!!
Very sorry to hear about your pooch. I lost my cat last year after 18 years, and very much understand both the hole that the passing leaves behind, and, as she was put to sleep, the pain from the thought that one minute she was alive and the next no more. Eh, still hurts! My thoughts are with you.
Great work Don. I love the drop crotch and your experimentation with silhouette and texture. It's awesome to see a menswear designer taking risks.
