Runway Show Numero Uno!!

Is it strange that i read my own posts? Because i was reading this one and i couldn't tell you what i thinking when i wrote it. I honestly don't know.

EDITED VERSION.
So i had my first runway show on friday night and, just my luck, i did not even get to watch it. There were so many supporters, parents and friends, that came to see the show that half the crowd could not even fit into the room with the runway. All of the designers, aside from the few that were smart enough to sneak in, had to watch their designs walk down a hallway, I was angry when it happened, but now it's not that big of a deal. I got to see my dress, and everyone else got to see my dress so i can't really even complain.

Our assignment was to take thrifty finds and make them beautiful again. I loved this assignment. I loved working on it and i'm really proud of the finished product. I know i don't know a lot about designing yet, but i know enough to realize that what i do makes me truly happy. If the clothes i make can make me happy, and other people happy then i can't really ask for more. I know that i'm lucky, and really bless to already know what i want to do for the rest of my life, so the least i can do is take advantage of it.
After the show was fun. So many people gave me the nicest compliments. It made all the hours spent on my dress well worth it. Even my saucy teacher was wonderful towards me and collegefashionista.com interviewed me for an article in january that will feature me and my dress. I honestly couldn't ask for more. I just hope every runway show i have for the rest of my life goes this well. And better.







So if this night wasn't amazing enough, Dana Buchman came to the fashion school earlier in the week to critique the Senoir fashion students' final collection. She might just be the cutest person ever. Not only does she say that eeeeverything is fabulous, but she has the tiniest little legs that are just adorable. She is a sweetheart and i swear i sat and listened to her for almost two hours. She is a dream, i couldn't get over how cute she was! It was really fantastic to see a real designer that was so kind and optimistic and genuinely excited about young designers.
Dana Buchman is fabulous, if i do say so myself.
