There aren't enough hours in the day.. sigh!

The fullest of full days;

step one: finish presentation material
Phew!

step two: take aforementioned material to very expensive printer
$$$$

step three: styling
more shoes required $$$ ouch!

step four: photo shoot for the 'tiser
Fun!

step five: race around like a madwomen setting up for presentation tomorrow
hectic

Drive home and realise I need to drink some more water
Thirsty

Here are some behind the scenes from step four:

The aforementioned glorious navy blue rabbit fur was primarily purchased for a short capelet; however having some leftover and this picture in mind....

I am dreaming of a full collar, worn over something a little slinky with some accidental cleavage....
behold!

when the fur flies!

After taking delivery of my glorious dark navy blue rabbit furs construction begins!
Its a messy affair....

so much to do, so little time

Sleep deprivation and delirium have set it...
HUGE thanks to my mum for travelling 3 hours and spending two days stuck at a sewing machine
Could not have done it without this help
xox

time flies..

With 2 outfits handed up, 3 nearing completion and only 2 weeks to go patternmaking begins on my ladies tuxedo!! Right from the start I knew I wanted to make a ladies suit; out of my love for 'Le Smoking' what is arguably the most amazing fashion photo, taken 40 years ago but stil relevant today and always and just because in this day and age of girls running about wearing the smallest spangliest cocktail frock they could find nothing looks more sophisticated and sexier than leaving a little to the imagination..

 

Photo shoot!

 

Had such a great time at the photoshoot!
Slightly stressful morning hand sewing the fur onto the coat as I really wanted to get it photographed, how lovely and shiny it is!

Many thanks go to Jesse- photographer, Tina and Tina from hair and beauty TTG Tafe, Shannon- model from Finesse and Aurum Rundle St for loaning me the gorgeous rings (the purple one may be going on my christmas list....)

just a few buttons to go.....................

Shouldn't take too long!
If I had a dollar for each time I said this; well I guess I would be paying someone to sew these on!

my loverly buttons are from button bar in Adelaide Arcade, very pretty, with a pricetag to match unfortunately!
