3 New Designs this week

I've been hammering them out lately, and it's surprised me, usually I am a "mood creator" - I have to be in the mood to do something, have sort of inspired motivation. After working on DiVAS for so many, many months and not doing anything in terms of content creation, I began feeling stagnate and it was really giving me this yearning, desperate urgency even to create. So, now that I have time off, I'm in love with it again, I have a new perspective, certainly, things are coming together in this collection in a way I never thought would be.. not from me at least. I've made a bit of an inadvertent departure from the glam/gaud pieces of my entire 6 year history of design, and I can tell you why: Having to run around as the character Phaylen for 7 months in some of my own outlandish creations every single solitary day made me want badly for some subtlety, something a little more muted but still stulish. I think thats how I've ended up here, where my creative avenue has taken me.

The first are these gorgeous little dresses/tops- yes, they're diverse and can be either-or, depending on your preference. I did them in several patterns and colors but kept the pallet a little more subdued. The detail came out pretty incredible, especially on the bow. Again, I'm on a sculpty sleeve trip, just can't get enough, it's so nice to have martial that isn't like it's been decoupaged on out pixels. The provide interesting shapes when considering the frame of an outfit, which is critical, and oftentimes a struggle to keep it looking manicured.




So I thought to myself, "Phay, you love jacket-blouses but never see them in the grid." So I made one, I really like how it turned out, It went through several variations before i was finally satisfied with the result. I paired it with a pair of dark pinstriped slacks and a belt for some shine and it really made it pop. This really was a labor of love because I enjoy things that give the human body a more elaborate shape, framing the face and the arms. One of my favorite features about this set, specifically on the jacket, is that black lining, sorta like satin. There actually another layer of prims beneath that give it some natural flow when the wearer moves.


These I did in several different colors. I won't include the red one here but it's simply divine, of course I do fancy the color combination of red and black.

Each one has it's own charm and makes for an interesting piece. I like clothes that you *KNOW* will turn heads when you walk into a room. The piece doesn't have to scream, but definitely must command attention, in a favorable way too.





Last but not least are these little upscale blouses I did that have a really unique pattern that i created entirely by accident and fell in love with it. I named them all after streets in New York City, because it takes a high fashion woman to pull it off and not be lost in the strong pattern.

The high collar and scarf you're thinking went out with the 80's - and it did, so i brought it back with a little bit of re-imagining. The knee-length skirt included in this set really modernizes the entire look, instead of going entirely black, a soft gray gives it a little more dimension, so the belt that is included breaks it up a bit.


Again they come in various colors for your perusal at the store. Stop by and take a look.
