behind the scenes @ yomono

my days have been overtaken by cutting boning, crimping grommets, drafting patterns, draping and sewing for the past several weeks. (not to mention the next few weeks going forward will fall victim to the same). and not all without a few casualties:

and before you ask, yes, r2d2 is an integral part of the process. so here's to more of the same! i can't wait until it all comes together for the pin show in february!

gearing up for the pin show!

with the holiday season dead and buried, i can finally focus on my next big adventure....my FW12 collection for the pin show! if you haven't heard, it's going to be huge. like 38 designers huge. tickets are on sale now, so grab yours before their gone and mark your calendar for feb. 23.

i've spent the past few weeks sketching, gathering inspiration, and making a color story for my corset collection. keep checking back for more sneak peaks of the line. until then, here's a little something to bed down your raging thirst for local fashion...
