If you try and reduce my skills and expertise to competing for the cheapest hourly rate you can find, regardless of the quality of my work and my expertise and knowledge of the industry that I am able to share with you, then I am not the right interpreter of your dreams – we have nothing in common.
#Where to get really old screensavers free
I am willing to give you my time, free of charge because I really am interested. I am sincerely interested in getting to know you, discussing your work and finding out whether or not your project is something I would like to take on board and help you with. When I say ” I’d like to meet you and discuss your work and your vision” it’s not a trick or a hard sell tactic…. I’m happy to work for you and I promise that I will always do my very best but you need to co-operate with me in order for me to do that. My job is to interpret your vision with the help of my fantastic team of seamstresses and tailors. You’ve designed your product and you need a team to physically ‘make’ that product you’ve conjured up in your imagination. I like to give it my all, otherwise what is the point? My part in your fashion business is only a small one but it’s a very important one because you need a product to sell. If you’re not happy with my work, I have failed…. I have been trained to do that by some of the best people in the industry (the late Hieron Pessers was my hero!) It is my job to interpret your sketches to the very best of my ability. My job is relatively easy – I am employed to provide a service. Starting a fashion business is not easy and all young fashion designers with the determination to have a go and launch a label, deserve the highest praise. Mine’s hanging up ready to be slipped into and accessorized with my single string of pearls. Happy Christmas everyone – there’ll be a run on little black dresses this week I’m sure. Perhaps it was the lack of diamonds around my neck! I looked oddly out of place… rather ‘nunnish’ in fact. I discovered this when I went to LA for Christmas one year and took with me black trouser suit and little black dress. It works very well in London but it doesn’t work in LA. I’m hidden.īlack doesn’t work in every city. If I wore a brighter colour I’d be bobbing around in the sea of black like a buoy on the choppy waters. Pancras station and fight my way on to the tube. I am lost in a sea of black when I alight from my train at St. It depends on the cut and as a pattern cutter, I’m a firm supporter of well cut clothes for all shapes and sizes, whatever the colour.īlack is comfort wear at its best. Fashion editors like to tell us that black is slimming and black hides a multitude of sins. I’m not trying to hide anything by wearing black either. Occasionally I’ll wear a white shirt under my black sweater but I’m mostly found in black from top to toe. I don’t quite feel ‘me’ in navy or brown. I’ve tried the new versions – the blue and the brown… but I soon went back to my old ways. I rarely wear any other colour at any other time of year either.
I rarely wear any other colour in winter. Don’t spoil your black look by wearing it with red – it’s too harsh. Black stockings and lace – a potent combination!īlack silk is like liquid when it moves… it shines and it shimmers over your contours, leaving just enough to the imagination. There is nothing sexier than a matching silky set trimmed with black lace. We consider black to be a mysterious and sexy colour when worn under garments in the form of bras, knickers, stockings and corsets. Our choice for black is not only limited to outerwear either. That fabulous androgynous look is incredibly fascinating and works well in winter. Most brollies are black and most padded jackets are black. For some reason I associate cold grey days with the wearing of black. I believe black is the best colour to wear in winter months. It mostly falls on deaf ears and apart from anything else it’s not true. From time to time some fashion editor comes up with a new definition of black – ‘Brown is the New Black!’ or ‘ Blue is the New Black‘.
