Design Development

Full Zip Dress banded neckline, with darts, converting to quarter top pockets, slim belt with bow. Thinking about Cotton/Silk or 100% Cotton Sateen.

Drawing Inspiration

I love the classic and impeccable style of Jackie Kennedy during her days as First Lady. Her style was so classic and beautiful it stands the test of time. And let's not forget Oleg Cassini who was the brilliant Designer behind her great style. This is my inspiration for the day.

Changes Made

Changed my mind about the top design...no longer a v-neck.

Which one should I keep? The one on the left or the one on the right?

Finding Inspiration

Just reviewed the Elie Saab collection for Spring/Summer 2009 and WOW!

I know, I know I'm late but so what...

Why in the world did I miss this before? It's masterfully designed with Japanese influence...

Love it!!!

Supplementing the line

I think I need to supplement the line the line with either cardigans or jackets?

Any thoughts?

My first design in 8 years

Well it’s not finished but looks pretty good...at least I think so.

I haven't sewn anything since I graduated college in 2001 so I'm pretty happy with how this is turning out. I think I'll aim to make a new design each week.

100% Linen - Lilac

And what about the skirt?

Well the back is definately low

High neckline or low?

Blank Canvas

What shall I do?
