Might Don't Make It!

I've worked for about 2 hours on this dress and Haven't sewed a thing! (It's all cut and Pinned together) I got the shape I was going for, but I lost my path when it came to the placement of the zipper and the connection between the Bodice, peplum and then to the skirt.

I thought because I knew how to cut this shape out just by thinking about it that I would be able to sew it easily and make a few more for the show next week. . . It just might not be happening.

Nom De Guerre Spring 2010

If I found more time to spend in the Thrift Shops and Resale stores like I used to, I would be able to achieve this exact look. I'm definitely inspired by the Spring Military look. The serious and clean cuts of military clothes are usually released in winter collections, but Nom De Guerre has stepped away from past occurences.

The Right Column Second Picture down is all me!!!

Boredom = Creativity

This what happens sometimes when I get bored and have a little time on hand, I make stuff, most of the time with no real purpose or intent other then the fact I enjoy making stuff...sooooo I made a quick short on denim since I am infatuated with the fabric. Enjoy.

Sewing Men's Accessories

Life is funny, I didn't realize until this week that I'm going to present my clothes in MY FIRST FASHION SHOW. and I won't be there! I have a conference in Texas (on the $hool's wallet). So a friend of mine offered to Represent my brand at the show.
I sent her the mood boards and style sheets so that she gets the look correct, which I'm sure she will do fine. My look is a hard one to mistake, hopefully you are starting to see my niche as well. I guess I'm going to do about 6 looks, and i wanted the majority of the models to have on bowties.

I usually make the REAL kind you have to tie but I know that every one doesn't like to put forth the effort, and because I won't be there to fix the Perfect-Imperfect knots I opted for the fixed bow-ties.

For my added aesthetic and style I used buttons instead of clips or hooks on the neck sizer. That definitely takes these bow-ties back in time. Go with me - - -> [Iamme Collective]

CREATIVE CHARITY

A MESSAGE FROM OUR FRIENDS AT WORK/PLAY:

"Ever since the catastrophe that hit the island of Haiti, Kevin & I decided we wanted to do more than just send off a donation to one of the many organizations out there. Instead, we designed a Hat for Haiti where it combines our design aesthetic along with the colors of Haiti & the use of denim. This isn't just some 'promotional item' crap...where after you purchase it, you feel bamboozled. In fact, not only will it be a dope ass hat that you can rock anytime, but ALL...let me repeat...ALL the proceeds will go to Wyclef's organization Yele for your purchase. Now that you have a little background, here's what we want from YOU: Long story short...we presented our idea to a few local BIG investors, but they were on some other stuff. So we decided to go directly to the people & get an accumulation of pre-order sales to front the costs. We have a well-known hat company that is willing to give us a break on the cost to make the hats. We just need people that want to rock something fresh & can put in a pre-order for their hats. The 5-panel hats are only $30."



HERE IS A SAMPLE PIC OF THE HAT....(just a lil' taste...fux wit it..)
