Entry: Costume College pics Sunday, July 31, 2005



I had a very different experience this year--I had so much stuff going on before hand, a project to finish once I got there, etc., etc., etc. I ended up shopping on Friday, since I wasn't going to be able to go to the fashion distric on Monday. Then I spent a lot of Saturday working on finishing my gala dress. I did go to two workshops that day...a Victorian trimmings class and a German Renaissance Bodice class. The gala was fantastic, as usual. (Kendra and Heather convinced me that I must go to Gatsby this year and bring Kevin along.) Then on Sunday I did some shopping at the market place and then went to an 18th century pocket hoop class; didn't quite get finished with the pocket hoops, but it'll only take a little bit more work.

Anyway, I didn't take as many pictures this year, but what I've got is in the gallery. Enjoy! And yep, that first one is the last minute gown.

I saw you pass by me a couple of times at the Gala. Yes, you turned my head! You glowed in that radiant color. Last minute?! Egads. You did a great job.

Thank you. I was so stressed out this year that I don't really feel like I got the full costume college experience, but the gala was definitely fun (glad you ended up going for at least part of the night Jackie!). Hopefully, next year I won't have so much on my plate and can just slow down and enjoy the event. :)

Hi!

Fun pictures of CC, thanks for sharing! :)

I never got to give you the Wings of the Dove VHS at Costume College. . . If you'd still like it, email me a mailing address and I'll mail it out when I go to the post office next (which will most likely be Saturday, since I never make it home in time from work before it closes!)

Take care,
-Jenni
