Make It Any Wear. Tuesday, June 30, 2015. Apologies for the not so clever post title, but it is what the dress has been referred to all along. Without revealing what kind of work I do, I will admit that this was an occupational related project:. It was worn to The Fancy Food show being held in New York this week. The pattern was at one time a shift dress from Butterick 5147 an OOP coordinate pattern. Like a game of telephone it is no longer anything like what it started as. Fit clinic at Sew Right. Alice...

Make It Any Wear: A Very Useful Dress
http://makeitanywear.blogspot.com/2016/08/a-very-useful-dress.html
Make It Any Wear. Wednesday, August 31, 2016. A Very Useful Dress. I have had a number of occasions lately that have required something a bit more special than my everyday wear, but not something too fancy. Maybe best desired as business to cocktail. I took advantage of a fit clinic with Kenneth D. King. The terrific store where I bought my newest sewing machine. Early this spring, on our yearly fabric shopping trip to find a good friends birthday present, I found this lovely Jason Wu fabric at Mood.

Sunday, October 25, 2009. Rucci Rucci Rucci - as in Ralph. Chado Ralph Rucci - makes masterpieces of art through fashion. He is the Picasso of couture. No contest.
