So seriously guys, if this was actual Project Runway I would totally be the contest at the start with the great idea who gets to the execution of the bottom and is like CRAP this is not working! I must've reworked the whole design atleast twice (the original concept was far more avant garde but I decided to tone it down for a very fanciful party dress instead) and the bottom at least 5 or 6 times which the WIP will be posted on my blog after I sleep today. What started out solely inspired by shoulder pads, harem pants and lyre-inspired back has now transformed into a elegant little number keeping with the same grecian influences with a little bit of 1920s and baroque sneaking its way in. All the multicolored strands will be made from twizzlers (interweaving the colors will create a gradient effect), the rossette is made from strawberry wheels and the petal effect from strands of sour belts. Not happy with shoe selection because I had cut out ankle boots or some form of sandal in mind but without those options, stuck with nude Jessica Simpson platforms.

This is a bit of a risky look just because even now I'm satisfied, but not completely over the moon yet although I like how I've finally figured out how the bottom will work. Also seeing all the casual wear pieces is freaking me out a little by doing such a intensive day-formal piece. Fingers crossed for judging Oh, an a big thankyou to everyone who voted for me!
