Q1 SPCL 2017
As a child I fell in love with 'little house on the prairie'. My mother taught me to sew and we made a sunbonnet. After that, I made all kinds of doll clothes. I had a powerful inner reality. Later, I sold clothing to my friends. I really enjoy dressing people. When they come into my store, I put an outfit together for them and they look fantastic. They're really happy! I like knowing that someone's life is better because of what I do. To be successful as a fashion designer, it helps to have a formal training especially drawing and sewing skills. You have to know fabrics, and enough to be able to communicate and understand what your client wants, plus lots of technical knowledge is involved. There's a surprising amount of math and lot of verbal skills. What you see in a magazine or on model has nothing to do with what looks good on a body. I have just launched a new collection and the name of my upcoming brand is BELLA BAYBES.
