Sew For Haiti Photos (on mannequin)

Well finally, I got those pictures developed of the outfit I did for the Sew Your Love For Haiti Fundraiser at KSU School of Fashion design.  Let me tell you kids, the model they had got for me was FIERCE, she worked that outift llike no tomorrow! Her hair and makeup was FAB-U-LOUS and girl had an attitude which sold the outfit even more in my mind! I was the ONLY pant in the entire show which made me stand out! I was also the only designer with accesories which also made me stand out!

After being at my first fashion show I understand what they mean by a model has to know how to walk because kids some of it just wasn't pretty!  Some of these poor girls never smiled, had no attitude and walked not well at all.  No other way to put it, unfortunately.  Maybe they were friends of the designers and never wanted to bea  model because some the attitude was "I can't believe this %$*#%& and I am wearing this as well!? Maybe it was sheer nerves, maybe it was the first time they wore high heeled shoes who knows it was just off.

I was so nervous the whole night it was unreal.  But than my model hit the runway and my heart flew out of my chest!  The music was fabulous, the room was packed as we had a SOLD OUT crowd and when the models did the final walk it was amazing!

My outift is a Batistite top, a Chinese Silk pant that is more Magenta than burgundy, the Organza purse, head scarf and belt.  The necklace is made of coral, pearl and faux findings I had laying around. Hand rolled hems and everything was a size 6.  I do get the outfit back and I may have a buyer for it as well.
Anyway tonight we are going again because they announce the winners of the competition.  Hopefully I place but if not oh well it was a great cause and a great night.  My design on the runway!  I was also asked to do another show to help raise the funds to put together the Senior Fashion Show.  I get to desing what ever I want, but I need to find out more information.  I said YES!

Until then Charlie Dale Fashionista has one thing to say......
