Fashion Trends: couture

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Today I thought i'd reminisce on some past projects I created when I was 14- 16 years of age.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> First up is my favourite that I made when I was 16, at this stage of my life I was addicted to the TLC show 'Toddlers and Tiaras', so naturally I decided to make a glitz pageant dress. Some may think its a tacky concept with bad values placed behind a glitzy dress, but for one I loved every minute sewing over the top sequin trims and curly frills!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The next dress was inspired by Australia's beautiful Great Barrier Reef. At the tender age of 16 I wanted to use colour, and lots of it! This dress in particular probably took the longest time to make, but at the time I thought it was worth it. By now you can probably tell my fashion sense is very over the top and full of colour!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">when I was 14, there was a part of me that still secretly believed in faeries, so why not make a fairy dress for that off chance that they do exist! If barbie ever needed another fairy dress for her extensive wardrobe then this would be almost perfect for her!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Last but not least is my blue Cinderella like gown, that I wore once to a teen pageant and then a fashion design competition. I can still remember clearly quickly sewing on the sequins on both days of these events, minutes before I went on stage. Lets just say i'm probably not cut out for the hectic pageant lifestyle!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Anyways I hope you enjoy looking at my past sewing projects and got a little glimpse into my past.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
