Fashion Show 09

The Fashion Show was held on 31st April. Unfortunately my hubby wasn't with me on that day as our son had flu and he had to stay in. I also had flu but took so much vitamins and was so excited and frightened at the same time that on that day I didn't felt anything. But the next day spent the day in bed. I worked so much on the dresses that I presented. I didn't made mine out of fabric, instead I made mine out of recycled items like newspapers and rubbish and plastic bags. The newspaper one was a wedding dress and it was worn by my lovely friend, you will see the front detail of the dress on the first photo. I also
made the tiara for her (but not out of recycled material). I also made matching earring and necklaces for the other 3 models. On the last 2 photos there are the rubbish bag earrings and the plastic bags earrings with some beads. The guests were really impressed with my works. And there were a lot of nice compliments especially for the wedding dress which took me a lot of time to make as the back is covered with newspaper "frills". I even ended up on TV twice, one of them was to interview me!!! On TV the bride also had a bouquet which had some of the flowers made with newspaper.
