Finally a design for an older girl that pays homage to the younger girl dress/shirt with a ruffled or bustled backH

TODAY! I finally figured out how I could create a design for the older girl in the theme of the open back dress/shirt with a bustle in the back.

So imagine a nice fitted top with some rouching in the front, and a sleeve either a ruffle sleeve or a gathered short sleeve, and then a back with cascading falls of soft materials in complimentary colors! I can't wait to finish this look it is going to be a smash (and we have a perfect model my niece hayley, She is the perfect young teen to sport the look).

I have always made costumes for my nieces and nephews in the past for Halloween and such. Are costumes something that people want specially made for them or do people really just want to go to the store and get something off the rack. I wanted to add costumes to our line b/c they always turn out so cute but I need your opinion will they look wonderful and draw people in or is it not really a big deal.  I ask because it is a lot of work to make them and I am not going to make costumes and not have them be popular that would be sad.  So leave me a comment yes to costumes or no.  

I will be adding more dresses to our line I have some wonderful dresses I am going to call butterfly dresses that will be up a bit after the bustled back shirt and I also have some visions for lovely soft flowy dresses. 

Let me leave you with some artistic inspiration from my paintings!


This painting feels so serene to me, it makes me feel like the place in the picture is a safe place a creative place where your thoughts can bloom every which way and in whatever form they take.  It feels like you could sit there for hours and have creative inspiration. I can almost hear the water (there is something about water that makes me more creative)
