Inspiration
I envisioned a stunning, strappy and sleek full-length gown with unique touches and interesting textures. The scallop-lined bodice and criss-cross accents at the top elegantly outlines a figure-friendly design. The golden natural waistline belt separates the quilted-style upper portion from the mermaid-like silhouette. It had to be show-stopping (without looking like a costume), yet modest, close-fitting, yet comfortable, and formal, yet picturesque. The (cranberry) red, beige and gold hues convey a touch of elegance, royalty and romance. I hoped to create a piece that generated buzz throughout my friends and classmates and leaving them wondering, "how did she ever make that out of 'Duck Tape"?...It's amazing!
