This comfy, drawstring skirt is being created to spec for Michaela of Glam Gals by AC Valor, LLC. The skirt measures 19" in length and will fall to mid knee. This skirt will be sewn from 2 vintage tees.
This design was inspired by my original painting, Cultured Coral, and previews are now available in the Catalog of Artwork
When I spoke with Diana about the fit and wearability of her skirt, she told me that all of her friends were loving it and that she felt very comfortable in it. She also noted that the colors were perfect for this fall season and that she was very much looking forward to the cooler weather so she could pair her skirt with a sweater, tights, and boots.
There are also some sample styles created from this design.
Margaux was the first to receive her skirt, a prototype of what would further develop into my new line of sustainable fashions, custom designed and hand-painted to order.
Her intital reaction and review of the skirt is what originally led me to launch a marketing test, of sorts. That test being the Skirting the Issue Contest.
Sandy was the winner of the contest and a skirt was sewn and painted to her specifications.
Further encouraged by all of your comments and reactions to the design and its processes, I launched the Conga Line experiment and a kind of product testing.
Kim was the first in the Conga Line to receive her skirt, followed closely by Cate. Kim's review can be found here
Denise's skirt was the first of the Curv-a-licious designs to be completed. I really enjoyed seeing this design come to life and more - to see it work in real life as it did in the sketches, adding length to her torso and effectively drawing attention away from the hip line. You can read what Denise had to say about her skirt here.
This comfy, convertible roll top skirt was sewn to spec for Elizabeth from Columbus, OH. It began as 2 vintage tees and was hand-painted as shown. Photos courtesy of DissolveGirl, herself. Read more...
