You are Invited to my Fashion Show Debut this Friday at LATTC

Hello my fabulous people,


I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS COMING FRIDAY!! Seriously!
It's been 4 intense 4 months of preparations for this graduatino.. 2  total years of classes and work and work. Lots of sketches, patterns, sewing, and lots of mistakes too...Finally it's time to get it RIGHT. Oh yeah, I did learned a lot and I feel relieved now that is almost over!!
I know I will miss being in class hanging out with my fashion colleagues, but I must confess, I sure am tired and overwhelmed with all that pressure of finishing in and on time.
I really am looking forward to our debut fashion show Friday, May 25, at LATTC, our great school.
Despite all the drama that happens during Gold Thimble semester(which is kinda normal)I still believe that we are going to have an AMAZING SHOW.We all want to win a Gold Thimble, and I happen to not get one, at least I get to celebrate the victory of those who won one.It's fair!! Winning a Gold Thimble is a way to get recognition for our hard work, we all worked so hard this semester!!
So, I'm here to share the good news which is my graduation and also to invite you all to come watch the show 7pm this Friday!COME COME COME!
It's going to be great.... specially because my mom will be present.... She is flying tomorrow from Brazil to be here for the show and graduation ceremony, June 2.
Since it 's a school fashion show and they make it all professional by renting the stage, the lighting and chairs, it will be charged $10 at the door. Come on, it's worth it!!


BDCI TV - Brazilian Digital channel will be covering and you will be able to see it on their website!http://www.bdci.tv/index.php

This two piece garment was inspired by Cavalli's. I know this is completely different from his stuff but he loves and uses huge prints on his pieces and that's where I got my inspiration from.I found this print and fell in love with it.. and even though SUPER hard to sew, I still insisted in using it because of how busy and colorful it is, totally made my garment special. I absolutely love the print!
