When Things Come Easily

The Unrefined series gives me a break from my perfectionist nature. The point of an Unrefined dress is to not dictate the design. I start a dress with a basic concept, but I know (from my epic battle with the Red Beast and the smaller battle after) that it will change 3 to 4 times before all of the pieces of fabrics are sewn together.

Sometimes designs literally fall together and Purple Chaos was a breath of fresh air. After the Blue Explosion, I wanted to design something more similar to my first dress. Whenever I wore the Red Beast out, it was always complimented. (Which helped me accept it over time. It really did take me a while to look at the Red Beast with any sort of affection.)

With the Purple Chaos, I wanted to work with velvet again because I love the feel and aesthetic. I went to the fabric store with purple on my mind, and chose the fabrics that inspired me most. Purple Chaos was started and completed before I knew it.
