Project Runway

In Mid January daddy was working some really long hours between his full time day job at The Children's Theatre, and his almost full time job at Mounds Park Academy. So Alex and I decided to surprise him with some pizza for dinner!

However, mommy forgot to bring diapers with her, and Alex SURPRISED her with a totally stanky nasty blowout in the car that left nothing dry!

Ugh!



Well as Tim Gunn always says.....

'Make it Work'

However the nearest Mood Fabric is 1199 miles away in New York, so I had the added pressure of working with found objects instead!

I found a small piece of scrap muslin, some cheesecloth, paper napkins and two safety pins.

And keeping with my " Post-Modern, yet Abstracted take on Evening Wear" I chose to juxtapose the look by accessorizing with a matching Matchbox car .

and you thought art school was a waste

Off to the runway we went!

Otherwise known as the ramp
outside the theatre

That's him working with the 'accessory' before his big

Turn!

In most fashion shows, the model only does one trip per outfit....

Alex however went around at least thirty times....

he even added his own "music"

I would like to note that this look was fully successful in its design and execution.

If you know what I mean.

And now that I have conquered the runway, I will be submitting my application to the "Mother of the Year" committee for their approval.
