Some of you kindly asked how the Fashion Show went. It went well! It was a fun experience. I did not post about it right away since I only had some few photos taken by iPhone in low light. As you can see, it was really dark! I actually did not get to see the runway show since I was working as a fitter in the back, helping the models to change. The event host, Leap Trigger will be putting together a web magazine of the event, so I will have more to show here soon.
There were seven other designers who contributed to the show. As I worked in the backstage, I had the chance to inspect take a look at the other designers’ work. They were beautiful…The execution was very well done and I could see that there was a lot of thought going into designing the pieces. Whether or not that the clothes are actually wearable is another question, but I was impressed by the quality of the hand work. I tend to design clothes based on what I want to wear, now, rather than working on the inspiration and expressing it through the clothes. How do you design clothes?

I mostly sew for my kids so it’s ALL about wear-ability, with as much of my style as I can still sneak in. I do often want to sew things just because they are beautiful but as a Mom with limited crafting time I have to be strategic about what I choose to do. The bright side is that you can be very whimsical and creative with children’s clothes 🙂
