“FEBRUARY 07 DESIGNER GALLERY CON’T”

…………………………In addition to what you have seen above there were FOUR additional styles to the February 07 Designer Gallery…..At the top left is a suede jacket in three beautiful colors….a soft Terracotta, a soft Taupe and a Slate Grey. The jacket had two sizes of grommets going from the back neckline, down the front and the hems of the jacket and sleeves. The jacket had scalloped edges to follow the lines of the grommets. It closed with a self suede tie that was below the bust line what is called “Empire”…….The next jacket was in the boucle fabric and was edged with the “dancing sequins” and bugle beads. The jacket came in Ivory, Chiffon Yellow and Pale Aqua. The jacket had princess seams and 3/4 sleeves. It had an open front….The sleeveless shell blouse below was in a beautiful georgette in the colors of the boucle jacket. It had 8 pin tucks down the center and 4 stitched down pleats on either side…..It was a little gem and a great top on its’ own as well as the perfect layering piece….The cotton/acrylic sweater set, tank and raglan sleeve cardigan had gold pearls and bugle bead emb on Ivory or Navy. It had a hook and eye closure. You can imagine what those gold beads looked like on the navy cardigan and tank with ivory trousers! Again, all of this hand emb could never be done today at the prices we did them 13 years ago!!

    I love this jacket and tank (lined, too) in all the colors.
    Tell me Louis, are sequins okay for day?

      Cela….in general yes, but it does depend on how you are wearing them and where…..For instance a sequin tank or fun pencil skirt can always be worn in a light hearted way with a casual jacket like a jean jacket or hoodie. The boucle suit can be work for a day wedding. A print big shirt with sequin s scattered can be worn during the day with Capri pants on a cruise.. Again, it depends on the person and the outfit.
