Draping

I am sorry I have been so absent, I have been contracting a lot on my design and making side of fashion. 

So I have always been interested in Haute Couture. I have always found it so fascinating and intense. I wanted to have a go a one of their draping techniques and I am pleased with the outcome considering it was my first attempt. 

If you like you like to create different shapes and fabric details then this is an easy way to create a fun little outfit. All you need to do is pin a baggy piece of fabric to you mannequin and then proceed to pleat and cut shapes into the fabric until you are happy then repeat for other area's.

Power Dress

I think these dresses (of which I have bought two...!) from Topshop are emence! The drop waist line and or the bright prints or sheer panels makes for a powerful statement just from the dress. Easy. Done. Just add heels, grab a bag and your out the door! 

They are so effortlessly chic and easy for when you wake up late! There is no point going crazy with accessories because you don't need too it would be over kill! A simple necklace or bracelet is all thats needed! I am in Love with them!
