…………….Taking these bold colors and COLOR BLOCKING them was a natural progression…..All of the clothes shown here were in my signature exclusive to me….wool crepe…..The coat on the left was HALF HOT PINK….the front….and half RED, the back….Even the RAGLAN SLEEVE was bi color with a seam down the center…..The sleeveless dress had an empire yoke. The top was HOT PINK and the bottom was RED….All of the accessories….shoes and tights were dyed to match…..Gayle in the center is wear a color block blazer over a stripe knit tank and a bi color skirt the front being hot pink and the back red!….To get the yarns for the sweater, done in the Florence area of Italy, to exactly match to the wool crepe made in Northern Italy…..took many lab dips and trials…In the end it worked perfectly as one would expect…..but this was no easy feat!…..The model to the right is wearing a topper…..ALL of the HORIZONTAL STRIPES were cut and sewn together creating this bold stripe….The knit short sleeve sweater under the topper was in yet another smaller stripe…..The slim leg straight pant was RED!……You needed great confidence to wear these clothes!!!
