But at least there was a limited red carpet event AND, the Netflix docu-drama brought back memories of a really elegant era in New York fashion. I had such a good time with the Halston post. I am blessed to have lived through one of the best eras of fashion. april_n_parishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14548456156450662065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558646734577104063.post-45355228486068268572021-06-12T18:44:56.001-04:002021-06-12T18:44:56.001-04:00These fashion designs are gorgeous, April.

Although some of the clothes were already there, new cuts, cuts, new materials make them something new! It is also intriguing how much the outfit, color, material and cut should suit the model wearing it! It has to match not only the skin tone, beauty, hair color, but also makeup and ... the model's personality!<br />Your dolls present their outfits perfectly and you can perfectly match the outfit to the model :-)<br />Best regards and good health ♥<br /><br />Thank you for your lovely comments, Olla. As you know very well, it is very important to choose just the right model for each garment. Not all dolls look good in all outfits and those of us who have sizable collections have the luxury of choosing that perfect model. And because our ladies are "perfect," they often show off the clothes better than the celebrities! The red carpet posts are some of my favorite projects. Big hugs.

Intrygujące jest też to, jak bardzo strój, kolor, materiał i fason powinien pasować modelce, która go nosi! Musi pasować nie tylko do karnacji, urody, koloru włosów, ale też do makijażu i ... osobowości modelki!<br />Twoje lalki prezentują stroje idealnie i fantastycznie umiesz dopasować kreację do modelki :-)<br />Pozdrawiam serdecznie i życzę dużo zdrowia ♥ olla123https://www.blogger.com/profile/16854108748309233432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558646734577104063.post-60880134760629751712021-06-03T19:42:29.309-04:002021-06-03T19:42:29.309-04:00Not to worry MC.

I totally agree with what you said about the original red gown. There was a certain drama about it I liked, but the sleeves resembled wings. I thought roses would be better than wings. The trick to adapting original designs is to 1) capture the spirit of the design and 2) think in the simplest terms. The human brain will fill in the details it thinks it sees! april_n_parishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14548456156450662065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558646734577104063.post-88685846473049803792021-05-17T16:57:47.057-04:002021-05-17T16:57:47.057-04:00I am a human disaster and I have not been keeping ...I am a human disaster and I have not been keeping up with my reading list. From all your versions, I think that my favourites are the red gown and the pant suit. I feel like the sleeves on the real red gown are kind of weird, so I prefer your "roses" version. From the real garments, I would say my favourite one is the first one. I do agree, that adapting that intricate design to doll scale would be very difficult. Maybe some plastic corset could become something similar, but that would be incredibly difficult to make. <br /><br />Hope you're having a lovely new week. monstercraftshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02783206408776211745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558646734577104063.post-66934194024584156732021-05-07T14:02:03.190-04:002021-05-07T14:02:03.190-04:00Thank you so much Dlubaniny.

I really don't understand how or why those "stylists" that dress the celebs are paid so much. Part of the problem is, of course, comes from the fact that couture or made to order gowns are not as beautifully designed as they once were. For most of today's stars, their lifestyles are so different, much more casual than those celebs from the golden era of Hollywood. So, I take the liberty of "tweaking." I agree with your assessment of the Oscar de la Renta dress. It was pretty but something was not quite right. There are times when I like high necklines in eveningwear, but those looks usually feature something with more frills or something bare somewhere else. By changing up the neckline, it is surprising how much more elegant the dress became. And yes, the Louis Vuitton dress was a lovely escape to the land of princesses. april_n_parishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14548456156450662065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558646734577104063.post-56843017429414023342021-05-04T14:28:04.977-04:002021-05-04T14:28:04.977-04:00Thank you so much for your kind words Shasarignis....Thank you so much for your kind words Shasarignis. I used very simple patterns to create each of the nine looks. Like that, I was able to complete a look per day. Though many critics didn't like the Oscar de la Renta dress, as soon as I saw it I thought of that piece of long-haired faux fur I had in my drawer. The skirt is very simple...it is a square with a waistline keyhole cut at the center. The top, which is a bustier (stretch velvet) plus removable sleeves, allows versatility. The top can be worn by itself and the detachable sleeves can be used as opera length gloves! The Vera Wang dress in silver is, in my opinion, a classier choice over gold and more modern. Instead of competing with the gold Oscar statue, she looks as if she stepped out of a futuristic Star Ship Galactic. april_n_parishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14548456156450662065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558646734577104063.post-89040425472142732942021-05-04T14:20:11.053-04:002021-05-04T14:20:11.053-04:00Another problem with shiny gold used in garments i...Another problem with shiny gold used in garments is that it tends to look rather cheap. In my opinion, silver is a much better option that can be worn by nearly everyone. I will admit, I started out with a light metallic gold ribbon, but I didn't have enough to complete the dress AND, the original model was even skinnier. After switching to silver, I was able to work out the kinks AND the silver gown gave me a reason to use those totally awesome boots! april_n_parishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14548456156450662065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558646734577104063.post-57625000316787142282021-05-03T22:35:46.206-04:002021-05-03T22:35:46.206-04:00Waw April, our patience was worth it.

I had 2 favorites: Oscar de la Renta and Vera Wang. Well done. The Oscar, we would never have thought it was three pieces. I really like the faux fur skirt. La Vera is a good choice to make it in silver, I find that it gives an original futuristic aspect. And the cut you put it well. I also like your choice of boot that goes up to the thigh. Very good choice. I prefer your model.Shasarignishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00640829190355452583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6558646734577104063.post-51573654446301104192021-05-03T17:30:15.277-04:002021-05-03T17:30:15.277-04:00My favorite is your version of Angela Day's Ve...My favorite is your version of Angela Day's Vera Wang gown. Yours is beautiful esp. paired with those kicka$$ boots! I think the shiny gold totally washes her out and she is lost.
