"Whatever makes you happy, whatever you want... you're so fuckin' special..."

So, recently I participated in Boston's open call NOH8 campaign. Initially, I was reluctant, but as I was watching everyone I thought of all the friends I've known affected by hate and decided to go for it.
I wasn't prepared at all, so bought one of the T-shirts they were offering. However, I didn't like the cut of it, so this past week I made it into something that's more me!

The bows are removable for easy washing.
I'm really proud of how this came out, and can't wait to update more of my wardrobe with pieces I've become "meh" on.

Call me morbid, call me pale...

So, this started out as a simple project when I was just wanting to get back into fashion design. I became disenchanted with the project (since getting sober, bright colours on me tend to cause panic and I immediately go back to my love of black...)
Anyway, I was going through some fabric and such back in Janurary and found this and decided that I might as well finish it.
It's a merging of two t-shirts I was planning on tossing.
Now I'm thinking of selling it since I had a few people that saw it sitting on my dressform inquire if I would consider, since they would buy/wear it.

This is Mean Street

So, this dress was originally intended to be for my boyfriend's debut in a gallery... unfortunately, I didn't finish it in time, but I did eventually finish it this past fall.

I'm really proud of how it came out, since this was entirely done with my own patterns and I'd never done something so structured like this before with only my own patterns.

I just wish it was machine washable...
