………….On a Spring AK collection where DOTTED fabrics were a theme…..I also incorporated SEQUIN DOTS………I used different size sequins to achieve the look I wanted. The GIANT ones had to be specially custom made…….From left to right starting at the top left….The short jacket had an open portrait neckline with a notched narrow collar and lapel,  with a cutaway bottom. The two button jacket had four darts front and back for shape, plus a back center seam, and 3/4 length sleeves. The entire jacket was banded in black, and had black piped besom pockets…..The dress below had black sequins covering a black empire bodice, and GIANT sequins on the white A-line bottom to look like GIANT POLKA DOTS….These sequins had a single hole close to the edge so they didn’t lay flat on the dress….They flutter a little….The white hand bag had a black sequin flap……The RED short jacket had three large flat black jet buttons. It too was banded in black and the jacket, and white skirt had the GIANT SEQUIN POLKA DOTS…..These sequins had holes at two opposite edges so they laid flat…..The solid black and white dress had an A-Line body. The black top was covered in baby size sequins with the single hole GIANT sequins sewn on top so they fluttered…..The white tank dress had the GIANT two holed sequins on the top, and the bottom was a printed dot on a stretch cotton sateen. A black gross grain ribbon trimmed the empire bodice…..The little waist length black banded jacket was in the printed cotton sateen…The short skirt was also in the stretch cotton sateen with an interesting banded bottom…………..The cropped sweater set in the black and white stripe….tied at the top with a small bow…..The short cotton sateen skirt had the two hole GIANT black sequins….All the tights were printed for me by my hosiery licensee, and the shoes and bags were planned to be in the cotton sateen stretch dot……The use of the sequins was a whimsical way to extend the dot group……I think the sketches look a little bit like Anna Wintour…..bobbed hair and sunglasses!
