Today we are going to take a waltz through my process: getting what I want in my little fashion world! How do I find an item I am obsessed with? Why the obsession?  How do I obtain it?   How do I search for it?  Should I just make it?  How the hell do I wear it?  How can you make it? Why the obsession? Every period had found a way to sneek ermine into fashion but it hasn't been taken seriously as a trend since the 1950s! Um its the symbol of anything regal.... Well I'm mad about Ermine and I'm bringing it to the 2010!!!! There's something so crisp and almost graphic about the black and white While still keeping its elegance in the silky fluff and texture of the black tails I have found in the first part of my research that secretly people have kept up a longing for ermine I imagine this creepy but amazingly eccentric woman who opens her cupboard to get something and all of these ermine capes, collars, coats, hats, and muff...

Here is the photo shoot of my last fashion show! You can see the eyelashes I made, shoes, hats, and two extra outfits photography by: Heath Orchard edit: someone asked for a detailed description: My collection was inspired by the mysterious treasures of the sea.  I researched hermit crabs in clear glass shells and organic sea shapes for the aesthetics, while using hat making techniques for construction inspiration.  I  molded giant lobsters and shells into existence.  I made sure the raincoat embodied the glass shells in the hermit crab experiment, while the silk dress underneath was as soft as the body of a hermit crab.  I made my own resin crab and shell zipper pulls and shoe clips.  The prints on the linings, dress, and blouse were all designed and printed by me.  I made extra accessories as well: shell hat, plastic rain hat, and eyelashes.
