Vaute Couture's Design Contest - the vaute

Leanne Hilgart Meyer of Vaute Couture recently found my blog, from my IF: Clique entry. She asked me to enter a contest for her company : http://www.vautecouture.com/

There were three differnt coats to design...I entered all threee catagories. I loved doing the project so much that it inspired me to continue with some of the designs even past their deadline.

Please let me know what you think.





This is 'the vaute' it is inspired by the classic peacoat with a girlie-girl style. It is a charcoal grey outter with a silky turquoise liner for a fun pop of color. Wear it to class, the grocery store or out to lunch.

the awe also... IF: Sugary

This one is for the most haute couture coat. It's for a bride at her winter wedding or for a holiday party goer. The glittery snow fall reminds me of sugar ~ and what a sweet thought for a winter wedding.

the el

This jacket was to be long like a trench. The outline was for a dramatic coat a Chicago winter girl with beauty, brains and heart.
All of the coats themselves are cut paper with the paintings underneath.

WISH ME LUCK!!
