It’s ike science only with fewer beakers and chances of explosions reduced 57%.

Just for fun I took a fashion design and construction class.  We had a “Project Runway” style show at the end, that, while cheesy, was undeniably fun and adorable.   This is what I’ve been doing instead of writing in my blog.  The first dress is evening wear, and unfortunately, we didn’t get any shots with the bottom of the dress, which was the coolest part.  I’ll have to post that later.  It’s an iridescent plum raw silk affair with a spring green silk tucked hem at the bottom.   Accessories are a venetian glass and gold sculptural necklace and a vintage silver and amber cuff bracelet.

The second dress is a sheer knit top with a rayon blend woven bust line.  The top stitched embroidery is done in three different colors.  Modern, fun, and about a size too small for the model, because I had a little trouble with the measuring tape.
