First Designs of 2011
January 10, 2011 § 25 Comments
I have a problem, I can’t plan an outfit too early, whenever do, my mind wonders and I subconsciously try to out do my last selections and start doubting myself, and before you know it, I’m off sketching and draping. I made 2 dresses before I reached a design I was content with for new years eve(the triple strapped dress), which I made on the morning in stifling heat because I was scared of perspiration stains on the beige dress. That’s me and c’est la vie
These are shown in the order in which I made and then outdid for many different reasons. haha!
Black bow neck dress with lace back and drape sleeves

Beige cotton sateen dress with cascade peplum, pleated sleeves and bow

Triple lace strapped backless dress with button v-neck

With all the skirts I’ve made I’m in serious lack of tops and blouses to go with them so I went for a simple tank style top in light fabrics to cope with the heat of summer.
Paint splattered low back top with ruffled jabot 

Red crepe top with ruffled jabot 
Check out this awesome photo I took as a bit of a behind the scenes thing. A pair of loubies for every look

The first and last ones are my favourites. I’ve been told that I look good in backless-style designs but to be honest I don’t like them that much on me – I love yours though, they’re amazing.
Best of luck with the sales!
The construction of your designs is amazing. I love the neutral dress and the red top. The gentle, flattering folds/ruffles in both items make them stand out. Amazing work lady, I’m looking forward to seeing where the future takes you!
wooow wat a great designs! wish I was that creative!
Very beautiful pieces.. The second LBD and the red top is beautiful

I cannot get over how amazing your back is, as creepy-stalkerish that sounds. Hope you’re having fun in the rain!
