Fashion is a never ending cycle that can be
manipulated in many different ways. A perfect example of classic fashion
manipulation is ‘the makeover’. Makeovers are mostly known for targeting an
individual’s style, but a garment can also get a makeover and given new life.
This was the focus and direction I had when approaching the restyling of Jonathan Joseph Peter’s dress from
the 7th
season of Project Runway.
Although this was not a popular garment with the judges, there was something beautiful and simple about it that I couldn't ignore. I knew that it was an excellent opportunity to make it into something new and exciting. A garment like this stands alone and I wanted to make sure not to take away from it with over styling; I didn't want to overdo it. When approaching the make-up and hair styling for my model Maddie Tabor, I took a more sophisticated and simple approach. Because this dress stands out so much on its own, combining it with a more sleek and classic look was the perfect match and I am more than pleased with the result. Sometimes a style or garment just needs to be reproached or in this instance restyled and the results can be exciting and surprising.
