Excellent!!<br /><br />And I was going to say what Uta said (great minds, and all that): I think you can significantly increase the wearability of, as an example, Dior Roses if they are tone-on-tone. And perhaps not <i>completely</i> covering your skirt. Although I personally would love to see that.Beangirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10402852482784879141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278085019370560632.post-73029775887484924062011-01-04T08:16:06.484-05:002011-01-04T08:16:06.484-05:00Those roses are amazing!

I admire "art to wear" clothing, dream of making certain pieces, but then take the quick route to just knocking off whatever I need at the moment, just to be able to wear it.Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13960310379822122045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278085019370560632.post-59158538704796722782011-01-04T05:20:33.359-05:002011-01-04T05:20:33.359-05:00I'm a jeans and tee shirt type, but I do love ...I'm a jeans and tee shirt type, but I do love Schiaparelli's designs. I'd buy the lobster phone in a heartbeat. The roses really don't fit into my lifestyle. I can imagine the reaction I'd get at Morton Elementary School! My colleagues would be more shocked than annoyed and my students would just laugh! However, I might put a few of the roses on a jean jacket.Elarayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06487492651398001387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278085019370560632.post-87257511489701466912011-01-04T04:15:24.454-05:002011-01-04T04:15:24.454-05:00I think nice clothes get more important not less, ...I think nice clothes get more important not less, as one ages. And a little eccentricity isn't a bad thing... I like embellishment that's tone-on-tone, or even same color, different structure. Imagine a single strand of roses black-on-black around the neck of a collarless jacket.Utahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06011335110798185030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278085019370560632.post-82532382791607336362011-01-04T04:07:30.704-05:002011-01-04T04:07:30.704-05:00Now this is the huge advantage of sewing for child...Now this is the huge advantage of sewing for children.

Hopefully it will look fantastic and not crafty - we'll see. That rose jacket is gorgeous, but may need to be made in the form of a cushion for you to admire and fondle ;\Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01529416439720810403noreply@blogger.com
