Its all a blur..

The last 3 weeks of my life have literally been a blur. Im really not sure of the order of events since my last post, but heres what I can recall: The wednesday before review I got out of work at 1030, and had a bunch of sewing still left to do. I went to Yamawaki (the fashion building) and was planning on leaving around 230. When i looked up at the clock and saw it was 430 I was shocked, time just seems to vanish when Im in there. Three other girls and myself stayed in there all night and got breakfast at 7am at a local coffee place. I then went to bed at 730, only to wake up 3 and a half hours later to start a very hectic day of review. Review went great, my models were on time, and my clothes fit them perfectly. Just because review was over didnt mean I was done, i still had a lot of hemming and last minute details to complete.

After all that work it seemed like it was about time for me to get sick again.... only this time sent me to the hospital. It was actually the best place I could have gone. I laid in the bed.. in a quiet room.. and slept a little bit.. and got a semi-decent meal.. of course i had a god awful needle in my arm the whole time but it was about 5 hours of rest that I needed and wouldn't have gotten otherwise.. i left with pain meds and antibiotics for tonsillitis. 

After the hospital visit it was time for another blurry week. Filled with fittings, papers and presentations.. Friday came very quickly..here are a few pictures from the show...

This is the childrenswear display at the show. Mine is on the right, bottom row, second one in, the little pink dress. There are multicolored bow all across the bodice.
This is one of my hats from last semester. Its brown faux suede with round turquoise beading. 

This is my vintage draping garment on the runway. 1930's influenced.

My ethnic garments inspired by my native american heritage. The dress is crepe back satin, with a painted silk panel down the front. The bottom is all peacock feathers.

It has a low back that is beaded, with a silver embellishment on the back. Hopefully ill be able to photograph it later.. so i can have some portfolio ready pictures to show.

My draping coat from last semester. With the skirt and tank underneath.

Menswear. Pin stripe pants and plaid button down.




Emily's senior show was on Saturday, which couldn't have been a more beautiful day. As a senior you make a 8 piece collection. Heres two pictures from Saturday.

Heres all the models, Danielle, Alexis, Sarah, Sheelah, Emily (the designer), Jess, Caitlin, Tristen, and Myself.
This is Jessica one of my best friends here. She was modeling for another senior. The red shirt and pants were a part of my outfit, along with a gray wool jacket.




I am 2 written finals, a digital portfolio, a physical portfolio, and a free-draped garment away from the end of my junior year... and that much closer to paris and florida. =)
