“SEPTEMBER 08 CON’T”

…………………….Th upper Boucle jacket had a wide revere collar almost a portrait collar that brought all focus to the face. It had a high shape with two buttons and a cut away bottom. It had body seams from shoulders to hem and three seams in the back that gave the jacket its’ shapely shape It was longer in the from at the two points and gradually became shorter in the back. The colors were Black, Red and Purple…This was definitely a dressier jacket…..The next SWING TOPPER was in black boucle with patent leather and turn key closure trims…….The suede jacket was pieced together and the colors were placed to create shape and the illusion of shape…..It had princess seams, and all of the seems to create the areas of color also helped to give the jacket shape. It had metallic leather piping details to outline the shapes. The shoe at the bottom was a source of inspiration……The funnel neck OTTOMAN RIB sweater,,,,,came in Black, Peacock and Magenta. There was also a coordinating jewel neck sweater to wear under the cardigan.

    I have the Ottoman Rib sweater in Peacock. It’s so classy looking & comfortable! I always regretted not getting the coordinating jewel neck sweater.

    Hello Louis…I could hardly believe my eyes, when I saw the pair of shoes that you used for inspiration! I have those. They don”t fit quite as well as they did. But they are so pretty, I hate to get rid of them. What fun to see them as part of your retrospective.
