I just love a fashion thread.

I demonstrated at the black-tie/vintage dress opening of the Titanic exhibit a couple of years ago. I brought a model, and did a piece in charcoal. SOO, I wore my pearls, and best long black velvet dress. Charcoal will come out of anything. I dressed my model in strapless black velvet, with a very Titanic jewel. I wore the same outfit for an auxiliary event. Attached.

Last winter I demonstrated at the black tie gala in Scottsdale with all the antique cars. It was January and although in a heated formal tent, still a bit cold ( for us wimps here) I had to find a long sleeve black velvet gown. The local resale store just happened to have one for $9.00. Although working in oil, I didn't care if it turned out to be a one trick pony. Hmm, I don't at the moment see my image but here's my model with the in progress painting. You'll just have to trust me when I say the OUTFIT LOOKED GOOD. Also attached. I love a shopping challenge.you should see what I picked up today for $4.95.

Now of course the big problem is your shoes, which is why you need full length stuff, to hide the sneakers or in my case, the Z-Coil shoes
