Super cool Show coming to a town near you!

So I went to see a show last night and I wanted to share the experience with you. If you ever have the chance to see any or all of the acts please do yourself a favor and do so!

If you have read anything about any of these acts (Jason Collett, Zeus or Bahamas) then you know that these guys have been playing music together for years but what you don't know is that they are all so talented that they have produced music baby's . What was once one band is now 3 which makes for one of the coolest shows I've ever seen! Playing all together and taking turns performing each others songs! One great singer songwriter after the next! Something not to be missed!

My favorite dress!

So this season I've been doing things a little bit differently. The collection has gotten bigger and I've been trying to take a bit of time to make one of a kind ( sometimes 2 )dresses that are a bit dressier and involve a lot more hand stitching and detail then my regular Lustre dresses. We could call this line Lustre Gold????

In the last 2 days, I created this dream of a dress it's 3 layers of a vintage lingerie fabric with about 60 hand made chiffon flowers that were also hand stitched onto the dress. Really i made it for prom season but I would get married in it! ... If I were to get married...

Spring is finally here!

So Last week I finally flipped the store and Spring arrived at Lustre just in time for the sunny weather that's been gracing us these past few days. It's like the boutique just landed on South Beach in Miami! Just walking into the store makes me feel like summer is only a skip away!

Lustre's velvet for FW2010

So now that' I've shown you some of the velvet that graced the runways in NYC, here are some of the ones that I did for FW2010!

As most of you guys know this collection is one that I very proud off more pieces then ever, that's why I'm sharing some of them with you now! But remember there's still tons of amazing stuff coming in weekly for SS2010!

Little Queen dress in burgundy cotton

Soft and luxurious

When I was designing my FW2010 line I had to stop myself from every piece being made in some kind of velvet. Even the jacquard I used has a chenille thread that makes it soft mixed in with the silk!

But now that NY fashion week is over I'm happy to say that velvet is in! As most of you guys and gals know I'm not one to follow trend, I can't help to do what my gut forces me to do. And even then, it's not my gut it's more like this obsession that comes over me. Sometimes though I'm not following the same obsessions or trends as the rest of the world and then it hurts my business. But I have to say, in this case Velvet was a good idea!!!
