Tailoring

So along with the deconstruction project we are supposed to do a tailoring project so I took a gorgeous blue dress and took out the elastic and began experimenting with different drapes.

YSL Rive Gauche

To make-up a missed drawing class we went to the YSL exhibition that is going on right now. It was not as extensive as the Madame Grey one but it was fun with lots of brightly colored mannequins and a fabulous gift shop. There were no pictures allowed so I found these images of the display.

Saturday Night Outfit

Not the best picture quality but really like this outfit that I picked out while video chatting with the Beezey B. It is a white skirt from Daffy's that I have had for a good number of years now but always seems to work. A red vintage belt and a polka dotted vintage shirt. The shirt was 1 euro from a vintage shop and is a very 90s looking crop top but very flattering when worn with high-waisted items. The gold earrings are my flea market find from last week and then necklace was given to me from a professor for a jewelry project but it was just too pretty on its own. Paired with black bootie heels and red lips and otherwise simple hair and makeup.

Sorry posting has been slow...I am going to get back into it especially as I start to finish final projects and what not at school. So this is a project for style bureau with the assigned inspiration of inside outside and then each student takes that where ever they feel it leads them. I somehow landed upon Spiral Stair cases. Then you take images of shapes from the runway and play on photoshop and with fabric to create looks that are reminiscent of your inspiration. Playful inspiration like this seems a bit silly but it helps you see things in new ways and new scales especially.

Flea Market Finds

Buttons and earring and pieces of fur! I love Flea Markets here!! I always find good deals on great stuff!!! The pastel fur reminded me of Missoni this Fall and although spring is pretty much upon us I will probably make a scarf next year for my return to the seemingly permanent wintery Syracuse weather.

THis isn't even 1/4 of the pictures taken! SO much too see!
