LOOKS LIKE...I've got a case of green envy!

     Though my sketches do not photograph well, I wanted to put another of my ideas out there for at least semi-public (thanks mommy) eyes to see. As one can not so clearly tell, I wanted to contrast a deep emerald green with a "splotchy gray" backdrop as opposed to the usual black one. The pattern climbing up the side of the dress is essentially green rectangles dog-eared near the bust and layered at a funky angle to contrast the flowy nature of the dress with a harsh, geometric pattern. The layering falls around to the other side of the dress to assure continuity and fluidity within the design (hey, ladies, I've got your backs; we're all about balance around these parts). I added a forward-leaning bun with a hairnet and some cobalt blue feathers for extra funsies. I thought these elements really added a quirky layer to this slightly whacked-out look. Who wants just one thing goin' on, anyways (not me)??
