After splurging a bit over the weekend, I promised myself I would not buy another gown for at least two weeks…no matter what. And I was doing okay until I signed on tonight and received a texture from Iota Ultsch of Tres Jolie! with her new design. Darn you, Iota, there went my resolve right out the window. I tp’ed over and already she has three color variations and I struggled to settle on just one. I love the depth and detail of the devore fabric in rich blue and green velvet.
No, this is more Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test. Lektra, one of the new releases at Modern Gypsy, is a bright bold brilliant lemony dress with a fabulously made short jacket that goes with it. Also included in the set are the amber earrings and belt. There are several color options available, but when I saw this screaming yellow, I jumped.
I cound not resist either one of the Eshi Otawara’s Kegawa dress, Tiger or Cheetah. The dress I am wearing today is Kegawa Cheetah – browner, darker and as full of life as the amazing cat for which it is named.
It would be my best friend Gidge you drags me thoroughly and completely out of my comfort zone with her challenge cause she’s wicked like that. Her exact brief was: “OK then, Now I want to see you do ultramodern. Sleek, metallic….not inhuman…….SUPERHUMAN……” I suppose I could have gone to a costume shop and bought the Silver Surfer, but that would not honor the spirit of these challenges, so I went to the Fashion Oracle, Sasy Scarborough. It took her less than 15 seconds to suggest this very Trilobite Cat Suit and she even knew the price. Never doubt the power of the Oracle.
Eshi Otawara's runway show yesterday was a tour de force of innovative and exciting clothing such as this Kegawa Tiger gown. You can see it on video here.
Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
