Another original design for the show. I found this gorgeous loden green, black and gold metallic wool fabric last year and it finally has found life in this poncho. The mink trim was from a vintage fur stole and I think it added just the right touch of elegance to the poncho. I added the fringe to keep it youthful and fun. The back features a small stone nestled into a piece of mink...just a little back interest. One size fits all!! Love it!!
This jacket started life as 4 different items: a vintage suede coat, a long heavy knit sweater, a vintage Persian lamb fur jacket, and a animal print sweater knit dress. I
couldn't believe how well the suede matched the animal print sweater knit. I love how the beads set off the exotic look of this jacket. This is an original design which I sketched before I started but it evolved as I was into the project. I really like how this turned out. Too bad the colors don't show as well in the picture as they do in real life.
