Another really fun person that I met this year is David. I had a chance to chat with him on Friday evening, and learned that he helped out with the festival patterns -- the curve in the sleeve of the baby dress was his idea, and just perfect. He also made the stockings for the festival outfits, and probably some other things I don't even know about. David is a very talented designer, and co-owner of D.A.E Originals. I've heard he makes people clothes as well; boy would I love to wear one of his creations! He made some simply fantastic Sasha outfits to sell at the festival. Here is a picture of his sales table, all limited editions of one to three.
I had a hard time choosing between my two favorites, the White Tulle Bebe Chanel Dress Ensemble and the Mondrian Party Dress Ensemble, and wound up buying both. I know who owns the other copies of these outfits, and am a happy triplet and twin as they are ladies with good taste. Here I am with David when I bought my first dress, which I think sold out almost immediately.
And here is Tina with David when she bought a dress, right before I had earned enough money at my sales table and thus had enough cash to buy the other copy (two peas in a pod, she and I).

First, the tulle dress, black floral lace stockings, and black hairpiece (with Randall Craig shoes).
Second, the color-block coat, matching sleeveless dress, and pink stockings (also with Randall Craig shoes). Couldn't you just picture me wearing this outfit?

How wonderful that you got these two superb outfits that really look a treat on your gorgeous girl. White is always difficult to photograph well and yes, need a different background to be able to fully appreciate the dress.
His clothes were certainly a treat to see.
I now realise that I had previously caught a glimpse of both him and a couple of these wonderful creations somewhere amongst the many festival photos.
I'm so pleased that your sales table allowed you to buy them as you would have certainly regretted it afterwards.
Definitely agree that a non-white background is needed for these 'all white' occasions....although I guess that it could have been altered later using photoshop!
Two gorgeous outfits, but I particularly love the second set, the bright colours are right up my street as they say! The perfect festival finds, in my opinion!
