And a close-up:
I have had so many customers ask me about designing skirts to flatter rounder figures. So, I added a contrasting border at the bottom, just as an experiment to see how it would work. I love the way it draws the eye down--away from the hips! I think this one is a keeper.

ReplyDeleteYour creations are amazing. I love the solid color border, it looks great.

Karen that skirt is AWESOME! Oh how gorgeous those colors are together. You really have a great eye for designing. I'm loving this new line of clothing you have going here. You have inspired me, and of course being your CT, I want to be just like you ... so I am going to try my hand at desiging vintage/retro reproduction dresses! I am going to have to get one of your skirts! But which one??? Hmmmm...
ReplyDeleteGreat job my friend!

Karen, I think you are right. This one is a "keeper". It definitely takes your eyes straight down instead of up near our hips and other fully stuff!
