I've designed this outfits in 2008 just after I graduated highscool. I was 19 and clueless at the time but I had an opportunity and I felt so responsible not to miss it...
This opportunity was gained and meant for someone else.
This opportunity was meant for my best friend from highscool with whom I have had made an entire plan for our fashion design education and career.
While we were planning it all, during our last year of highscool, he found on the internet Catalin Botezatu's personal phone number. Catalin Botezatu is a famous Romanian designer. He called this designer and said that he is a talented teenager, pursuing a career in fashion design. And that he was ...
In the end he could not meet Catalin Botezatu and he asked me to do it instead.
I could not forgive myself if I have missed this opportunity
A few months after I lost my friend and barely got in university on the last position, I went and meet Catalin Botezatu , showed him some sketches and asked for the advice my friend would have asked for ...
He told me that if I create a collection within 3 months he could help me showcase at Summer Fashion Week
I don't know if he believed I can do it, but I did.
The collection was inspired by the 20' s , it contained 15 outfits and it was showcased at Summer Fashion Week 2008
I made only the prototypes, I still have all of them .
The pictures in nature were taken a few years after, both the photographer and the model were students at the same university studding photography and they needed some photos for an assignment, unfortunately I don't remember their name
Dear @alexandravart , do you know that i have been suspecting this about you that you are also into fashion. Smile
I happen to have a friend who is an artist and she is into fashion as well. She shared in some of your attributes. I see her in you and you in her... Hahaha. I will share some of the pictures in your post with her to see if she can come up with something like that too.
What a wonderful design. So beautiful as always
can wait to meet her I hope she will share some of her work on steemit too :) thank you
She will immediately her account is confirmed... Any time dear
Looking real good
thank you, that is not me in the pictures :) I just designed the dresses
You match the clothes perfectly
Thsmk you so much for this photo edit , looks great, btw this is my art community based account, for @alexandravart and friends, were I like to do collaborations and host contests and share everything with creative commons license :P
What does it mean to live authentically & truly pursue your passion - Artsy Fartsy inspirational motivational - by Jose Arteaga https://d.tube/v/josearteaga/kgfs19zi
I will watch the video, but somehow I don't know how to live any other way, this way I know :)) my dreams and passions very slightly changed during my 29 years, I always pursue being creative, honest and free, never thought about money or practicalities of life, so that is the part I still have to learn ,but I think I will never be able :)
You have a very special talent! They look good!
thank you :)
Nice photo, nice fokus, and nice girl 😀
Fullback and upvote
And nice clothes!
yes. that is good. follback and apvote, so i can see that nice nice like that again 😀 thanks
thanks :D unfortunately I don't know how to find the girl again :)
whay? girls do most like in photos. and photos right on the heart 😀
wow! I wish I could wear those clothes design by you :D
Be ready for my wedding day! <3
I am not currently working as a fashion designer, let's say may dream did not fit the industry , I just do art this days, not products :)
if you get an amazing seamstress, I can make sketches and patterns, so until you decide on getting married find the best seamstress because my designs are hard to make :))
But wow, your designs are amazing! :)
I got the best seamstress - my mother! I would love to if you can design it.
with the distance and everything it will be a bumpy ride :)) but we can attempt it, I am curious what your mother has to say about the designs, because usually when seamstresses see my sketches, they run away and think I am crazy :)) the designs seem impossible at first glance, and in the past I had to convince them to try, it was a fight back and forth for every detail :))
btw the wedding dress in the picture, had 40 m of fabric in the bottom part and it still looked airy, I was very keen to make it look like a light statue, it was cut in circles (spirals, bias cut) probably your mother will know what I am talking about, and will end up thinking I am crazy too :))) hopefully not
I hope my mom will not say NO for your designs. Hahahahaha.
:)
You are so talented. Well done. Sorry for your friend.
yes did not mean to write the entire story, but I started writing and could not stop :(
thank you
Really incredible! so flattering, and airy.
is not me in the pictures, I designed the outfits
Yup, I corrected myself :), From some reason i assumed it was you, cause the model looks a little bit like your avatar. But upon reading further i realized that i missed the part where you mentioned that it was another model.
I am not that pretty, my avatar is a photo taken by a professional photographer and I have full makeup on :) and I have 10 years extra :))
haha, yeah i'll give you that sister, time is a bitch! but I have the impression that you are as pretty as your avatar shows, and also i recall the photos you took in the forest from one of your earlier posts, you are very pretty. doesn't matter when they were taken, you are the same person.
sisterhood all the way :))) thank you
I see you changed your avatar, that means there is new exciting art on your blog, will run there to check...
thank you, the picture in my avatar, i still need to make a post about it... but the reason i changed it, is actually because my original one seemed too serous/frowning on the small scale... :) now its much more friendly
You've come a long way at such a young age. You have always been an amazing talent and your self belief has always helped you. These are lovely pictures Alex! Always proud of you.
thank you
😊😊😊
Love it! Great colection, I find it so dreamy, love the fluidity and transparency of these textiles. ❤
thank you dear friend :)
Excellent design and photography! You are great at doing this:-)
thank you, I don't know there are parts of the fashion career that are not fit for me, that is why I do mostly art now, but I still enjoy drawing dresses and costumes in detail, if someone wants or has patients for it, I can also do patterns and technical sketches but I will never get involved in production, advertising and everything else that comes with the job
Wow, well done! Keep following your dreams!
thank you :)
Beautiful both fashion and model!..
thank you :)
Very nice dresses! You should still aim to present your collection to the industry. I am sure a clothing company would buy your prototypes and send them to production.
I am not practical in my designs, everything I do has to be the way I see it in my mind, natural fibers, complicated patterns that are not fit for mass production and a lot of manual labor.
The process of producing most of my pieces is closer to sculpture than factory, and I suffer every time I have to compromise, so I won't give there, where they want to take only parts of what I have to give.
the only way for me to succeed in such an industry, is to take my personal feelings aside from my work, if I do that, there is nothing left ...
Beautiful Model.. beautiful dresses.. and off course beautiful photography !
thank you
wow, such impressive work. Wow, seeing your name in that fashion show...
that was a surreal experience, hard to describe, I am not religious and my spiritual side is completely made up by myself, but in that moment I had an outer-body experience.
the catwalk was over a big pull, very long narrow and shiny and I haven't seen it before the show, I was backstage all the time. I was disappointed that my models came with long straight hair and I wanted curly pinned up 20's style, but the moment they started walking the weather become very windy, I thought they will be flown away from the catwalk.
all that shiny long hair and the fluid silks were dancing like flags.
it was quite an experience and I was literally sick right after the show. that amount of accomplishment and happiness overwhelmed me and my stomach :)
Okay, I thought you were a painter or an artist but today, I got to know that you are a fashion designer as well. How many skills you have that are still be revealed?
And I want you to read my last post where I wrote about some steemit platforms including slothicorn and wrote about you as well.
You don't have to upvote and resteem my post, just want you to read it.
And I might come to Romania after 6 months, are you ready to welcome me?
thank you so much for the article, I did not realize I am such a success story, but lately I almost work a steemit full job :)) I have so much to learn from you about utopian, maybe we can collaborate :) ,Also do you know the new account @ccommons.art that I host ?
can wait for you to come :D do you have some projects in romania ? what is the plan ?
and please do contact me on discord, I have the same name there as well :)
Sure sure, would love to work with a lady like you!
Yup, I know. You once replied from this account and I immediately followed it.
As such I have no plan. I just wanted to go abroad to see some new people and have been saving some money from my Steemit earnings and I guess I would be able to save enough to bear a return ticket and some expenses to be made in Romania.
Coming.:)
You have designed some very beautiful unique fashionable pieces. I can not wait to view more. I too, have designed my own fashion, jewelry, shoe/boot accessories, etc. I previously modeled as a freelancer, and now own fashion and jewelry designs ecommerce sites, as well as, local and remote shops.
Thank you for posting your designs.
