“THE DRESS”

……………………….THE SILK CADY A-LINE DRESS in the Ink Blot print was a beauty…….simple, but very CHIC…….and the jewelry……OH LA LA!!!! One might think that on a dress like this you should keep the accessories simple……..au contraire…..ask Iris Apfel………”a little is good a lot is better!”…..It is exactly on a bold print like this that a BOLD necklace is needed or else something simple will be lost and insignificant….The necklace and earring were made of Black Glass Jet and Glass Pearls. The clip back earring was a cluster of jets with hanging jets and tiny pearls, and then the larger pearl tear drops. The magnificent Bib/Choker necklace again, was rows of black jet and small pearls with layered hanging teardrop pearls. It truly was a spectacular piece, and the fashion jewelry buyers of the best stores and boutiques went wild when they saw these pieces. They all wanted “show stoppers” in their jewelry cases just to get the customers to stop and look….and that they did. These pieces got a lot of editorial exposure….This print and jewelry was not for the faint of heart, but when you are designing an expensive Designer line, the faint of heart is not the customer you are designing for…..Doesn’t Christy look amazing! She was and I’m sure still is one of the sweetest most professional models I ever worked with. She was “super” in every way.
