The more I look the more I fall in love

In this post I'd love to share ideas and thoughts I had working on this orange and daisy dress, which I made for my friend Inessa, beautiful lady and great singer. Russian folk with a modern twist was required according to Inessa's repertoire...
We bought fabrics in The Fabric Store (38 Wandoo Street, Fortitude Valley). We chose orange satin, silk mix, and daisy lace, polyester. We chose lace very carefully.
How to choose lace fabric?
There are few recommendations.
Lace should be:
-Pretty strong. You will see if threads are too thin and weak. Holes won't embellish your dress.
-Not clingy to your fingers when you touch it, otherwise it will lose smooth finish very soon. And won't last for long.

Pants Magic - my new logo
Let me introduce my new logo.
It took me a while to create it, but I like how it looks.
The main idea it reflects is as follows: perfect pants make you look like a diamond, sparkle with beauty and be always out of the row. You'll see this leg in a diamond on photos of my works.
Creating of something like this is an extremely interesting process. Logo should be unique, and introduce the philosophy of your business in graphics.
