The feelings that speak to me

 I enjoy immensely what is involved in the creative process of developing something that at some point will find someone out there that will say I want that, that is for me or for my sister or baby or mom or friend. Measuring a fabric's softness or transparency. Choosing colors that will compliment all skin colors, developing the "Twist" or a girl's dress where the one wearing it, or giving it will feel special. It isn't just something more to own, to buy.

I love it when we hear from someone expressing how what we did contributed to how special and memorable an occasion was, sometimes nearby, sometimes as far as Norway. We have heard how one of our dresses found its way to tea at Buckingham Palace or our Coats appeared in Us Magazine with Sarah Jessica Parker's twins wearing them or in People's Magazine showing Carrie Underwood's wedding, the flower girl's dress was our "Windy". It is all great fun, all the thoughts and considerations that go into designing and into presenting what we do comes full circle when, like today, someone from Italy says, "I picked the Twist Bordeaux because it is described as an invitation to experience something lush and beautiful"..... Thank you... you spoke to my feelings.
