MN Red Dress: Jillian Fialko

Hello Everyone! I am so excited to share, my newest adventure with you.  I was able to do the Minnesota Red Dress, it is a charity I feel strongly to support.  They do amazing research and help out so many family's! When I was asked to do the fashion show I was so excited to say YES! Since this is for an amazing cause I wanted it to be memorable, exciting and fun for everyone.  I have been to quite a few shows and as well done the work is I feel like sometimes I leave those shows talking about a few of the outfits later on.  My goal was to make sure people to wanted to talk about it as if it was the event of the season to remember the surprise to tell everyone about the fun event.  Thus making wings, adding her dog bacon and making a dress that suits both.

Of course this was over the top and Realia by Jen helped pull it together even more with her awesome jewelry! She had the most kick ass necklace! PS I'm linking her website, seriously click the decor section to be blown away!

Laura Schara was the model she has her own show on Kare 11 and of course her side kick bacon did so well!  She is such a motivated person it was an honor to work with her.  Especially me being my super awkward self.  At the end of the show Matt Dumba from the Minnesota Wild took my wings for the finale.  That improve was the best!  It was such a fun event, I hope you enjoy what I did!

Fashion Illustration: Red Dress

Hello Everyone, hope you are ready to start off this next week.  I have a treat for you! I was asked recently to participate in Minneapolis's Red Dress Collection for the American Heart Association, yes those are wings. and yes I am excited to get started on this dress! This is done in markers and pencil.  I liked to go with a darker red color because the wings will be made out of balloon material called mylar. The dress itself will be a heavier jersey material.

Leather Purse!

I should take some photos with someone wearing this but oh well! I finished a leather purse complete with hardwear. I had some trouble with some thread tension but this experiment i would say is successful.  It has brass rivets grommets and snap.  The lining is polyester and the shell is lamb leather. So Yeah I am  excited it's done!!! :)

Sister's Present

My sister got married recently, and as a result of using sequins I made 2 pieces for her to hang on the wall.  Since I always do things for other people, this is probably more girly than what I would make myself for my own apartment.  I dyed the fabric myself.  Then painted with acrylic and hand stitched the sequins on. I was hoping the zeros would look a lot like wedding rings. I hope you enjoy!

Fashion Illustration: Turkish Trousers

Hello Everyone, I haven't posted for a while because of all the trips and events this summer!
I am hoping to share some of them with you, however I did manage to draw a quick sketch of some shiny Turkish Trousers. The thing I love about these pants, western culture picked these up as something that women can exercise in.  During this time frame women's outfits were primarily dresses. Being as the first accepted pants for women to wear makes me love them even more!

That's it hope you guys enjoyed! Thanks for reading! see you next time my little creators.

Disco Helmet

Today I present to you with a recent project I did, It's not the cleanest prettiest thing I have made but it was a joke gift for my friend's 21st birthday party.  His favorite movie is Boogie Nights, and since he has a disco ball already I decided to make him into a disco ball. My friend was going to buy vintage skates but that didn't happen. So he wore the helmet all night it was a great time. 

Directions:

Buy a helmet sand it down, try to find one that looks like a horse riding helmet.

Buy a lot of mirror tiles.  I would mark off areas for it but I obviously did not and super glued it to the helmet. Then another suggestion I did not do, use caulk.  Then glitter glue inbetween and now you have your super duper cool helmet!!!!! 

That's it hope you guys enjoy because this present was AWESOME!

See you next time creators!
