| Willi Smith - designer |
I was recently asked by a friend to design a birthday dress for her. This is perhaps one of my biggest honors. Here's why...I am not a fashion designer, I wouldn't dare put myself in the company of geniuses like Karl Lagerfeld, Oscar de la Renta, and Diane von Furstenberg, but it is always a humbling honor to have someone consider a unique design from my crazy head. I love fashion, but designing is different from styling. I am used to working with what I am given. Now, I have to create what I am given and then go from there. The fashion industry is a complicated maze of giants and politics. I am still trying to get to where I want to be. But in the meantime, being asked to do something like this is amazing! Check out these preliminary sketches:
 |
| Black tight dress with black lace blazer with silk pleating at the bottom (Leopard interior) |
 |
| Black Dress with hemmed top and open back. Gold chain embellishments around an exaggerated shoulder |
 |
| Pleated lace skirt dress |
 |
| One shoulder rib dress with flower embellishment |
