All 100 hours or more spent on this dress.....






The only thing that's left for me now is just take photo of this dress on a live model.

So I am approaching the finish line( Click on the photo to see a larger image)




I see many students working countless hours on their garments. They have goals as I do.




Finally I am almost done with this dress that I thought was impossible to finish on time.




So now the only thing left is redo the center back line, add the cuff on the top and finish the hemming.

And this is only half of it. I still need to flute the other half of the dress...

I ran out of the bias cuts







Today I left a little early because I ran out of the 2" bias straps I cut.






So here is how far I went. I need to get white Taffetta to put in as lining material.

four more hours of fluting


Here it is...

It doesn't look much but each row is sewn individually so it is very time consuming.

Halloween - Prof. Cruz's Costume.




Prof. Cruz today showed us what he is going to wear tonight for the Halloween parade.




I love it.




My classmate Laura wore the dress.

Continuation- fluting




So today I continue to flute the underskirt.




It now looks somewhat nice.

Fluting the underskirt







So today I begun fluting.






Yesterday I cut the 2" wide chiffon bias straps.








I worked on this for four hours.



And I have a long way to go... I need to cover at least half of the underskirt.

Hmmmm....



About Me

I love Fashion Design. I never felt about anything this strong in my whole life. When I am designing, looking for fabric, draping... those hours go by so quickly. I forget to eat, sleep, or do laundry(^^) when I am designing. I have been searching all my life for that special something that just makes me to forget everything and lets me be me. Fashion design allows me to do that. be myself.
