Maude: i should like to change into a sunflower most of all. they're so tall and simple. what flower would you like to be?

Harold: i don't know. one of these, maybe.

Maude: why do you say that?

Harold: because they're all alike.

Maude: oooh, but they're not. look. see, some are smaller, some are fatter, some grow to the left, some to the right, some even have lost some petals. all kinds of observable differences. you see, Harold, i feel that much of the world's sorrow comes from people who are this,
[she points to a daisy]...
Maude: yet allow themselves be treated as that...
[she gestures to a field of daisies]

the future of fashion(s).

i might be a little MIA for the next week or two! the reason being... my first senior collection garment has to be 95% done by Wednesday of next week! and my 2nd (Cotton Inc) garment has to be 75% done. wooopie! i have a lot left to do... but on that note! another reason i might not be spending as much time on my personal blog is that i've been made a contributor for the newly established FIT BFA Fashion Show blog!! it's been really fun thus far, i've pretty much just been updating it whenever i have made some notable progress on my garments.

now this is exciting on it's own, but the best part is that one of my girls, Krickie (who also has a kickass blog, freakybananakins), has been interning at Refinery29, and told them about our site! Krickie was granted permission to write a post about us, and from there we've gotten even more press! a day or two later, NBC New York wrote about us, and yesterday, the Sundance Channel's Full Frontal Fashion, did another blurb!

extra! extra! read all about it!
