Description
A skirt design i made while i worked for Rock & Republic. This pic was taken at the spring 2005 fashion show for LA fashion week. it was over a year ago, so hopefully they won't sue me for posting this. *sigh*can i just add, holy crap, its so amazing to see something go from paper to being a solid tangible object... amazing.

My jaw literally dropped when I saw your skirt design! I definitely would purchase this whole outfit. Any chance I can hire you as my exclusive private designer? Prob not, cause most likely I couldn't afford to keep your designs all to myself. Hmmm? but then again... could I? Hahaha... it's worth the thought tho!

Hey thanks so much! i really appreciate the support. I don't really do fashion design anymore. its a dirty industry, and although i was incredibly lucky to have had the chance to see my designs take shape, it was a little much for me to handle. In any case, thanks so much for your comment and if you ever need an idea illustrated, drop me a line.
*I also want to add that I did not actually make the skirt, i chalk that up to a team of patternmakers and sample sewers who rock my socks. i'm pretty retarded with a sewing machine.

it's awesome, but yeah r&r punked out on the top.
Im sad to hear working there sucked but o well, it sounds like it was an amazing experience!
Do you want to go into fashion?

i used to think i did, but that experience stifled the flame a bit. i'm probably going to do something more in graphic design rather than fashion in the future.
thanks for the comment!

might i add that paris hilton was sitting a few feet to the left of this photograph frothing at her mouth in the front row in a little pink dress, saying to her self, "is there anywear i can get this skirt in size Blow?
Tania that was one of the most thrilling star struck proud nights i've ever had. I am in awe of you, YOU little 19 year old russian design protege never-going-to-college-and-then-being-promoted-to-hottest-designer-of-fashion-week, you. This, god you are inspiring. you are a big middle finger to otis and risdi and ucla and and and

Pretty sweet, I'd be interested in seeing what the shirt looks like too. It seems like the shirt they went with is something more mainstream. I'd expect the runway design to be very unaccessible, but instead that outfitt is totally wearable. It's edgy, but not just for super high fashion. I like it

Yea, you totally have the right idea. I think the top makes it seem too everyday, but the skirt was really pretty nuts - the train was several feet long.
thanks for your comment!

They cant sue you unless you signed anything saying you sign your rights to the artwork or images over to them.
Really nifty BTW. How was the job?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well, i didnt sign anything, so that's good to know. hehe
the job sucked btw. it was really amazing and glamorous at first and then it just kinda deteriorated. but it was a great experience to be a part of.

Wow, that is rocking. I kind of wish they had stuck to your original design more though. The one on the catwalk looks a bit unweildy. I think it'd be functional and awesome if it just almost touched the floor.

we actually made a version that was a little shorter but it didn't really work. It didn't seem to fit in the real world or on a runway. anyway, thanks for the comment zoob!
