Prom: Best Dressed

Photobucket

Here are the final shots from Victoria's Pre-prom party! She had a vision for her white dress and contrasting Yves Klein blue shoes - love how she matched the shoes to her dates tie, too!!! Did I mention that she made the dress herself? Vicky came back by the studio for Saturday's class to tell us all about her prom adventures. After working so hard on her dress for almost 4 months, it was really great to hear all about her big night. It sounded like Vicky had the prom of her dreams - she party hopped beforehand, and then jumped on a giant bus with 22 other couples and headed to her actual prom, where she danced the night away until the clock hit midnight! We were all so proud of her and happy that she had such a wonderful night. The best story in my mind though, was when her Vice-Principal (who has his own fashion line!) stopped her and asked her where she got her very expensive-looking dress! It's the moment every designer dreams of and nothing feels better than saying "I made it myself!!!"

Congrats again Vicky!!!

Victoria's Prom Dress - 2011!!!

Vicky finished her prom dress on Wednesday night... Sure, there were feathers all over the studio and class had officially ended hours ago - but there was a little bit of magic in the air and Vicky looked like she might die of excitement right then and there. How often do you finish making your own silk chiffon and ostrich feather fairy-tale dress and then get to wear it to your prom two days later??? Everyone in the studio last month was excited to see the finished product, and while I don't have pics from last night's party yet, I think it's safe to post a few more process pics now that prom is over... so here they are. I think this is one of the most spectacular and amazing pieces that a student has made so far at The Make Den and it will definitely go down in the books as one of the longest! Vicky worked on it for nearly 4 months. Hard work and patience pay off, guys!
Stay tuned for pics of Vicky wearing it at the prom later this week...
