Challenge Three
She was sure the handwriting on the envelope was his. Inside, there was a single ticket to the Bolshoi. She loved ballet. He knew that. She hurried through the streets of Moscow, her heart thumping. Would he be there? Would she still recognize him? Would he remember her, his lady in red?

Challenge Four
I loved the way Alexander McQueen got such height from his models using hair and shoes. I especially liked the hair and wondered if I could make a hat based on some of his hairstyles. I sketched out the hat and made that first. The rest of the outfit fell into place once I had the hat finished and on her head. Where would she wear this? Anywhere she pleases...obviously!

Challenge Five
Antoinette is attending her first Oscar Awards Ceremony. She has been nominated as Best Actress for her lead role in “Shoe!”, a musical based on the life and times of Cinderella. She waves to the crowd as she glides past the throng of excited fans, truly feeling like a princess in her ruffled, sequined dress. Will she win? Only time will tell. |

Challenge Six
When Tyler feels very Audrey she goes for a minimalist style like this two piece dress. The separate skirt is steel blue/gray dupioni lined in white silk habotai. The top is an empire waisted tunic in buttercream dupioni, also lined in white silk habotai. To accessorize her outfit, she chooses a multi-strand necklace in glittery gray, blue gray and turqoise beads and a braided black hat with a whimsical feather.

Challenge Seven
Deanna was a little surprised when she was invited to the company's formal cocktail party. It is usually for managers only. Well, she has worked hard, not only as a secretary but contributing her ideas when she sees an opportunity to do so in a professional manner. She is detrmined not to stay a secretary forever. She has talent and ambition and she intends to use both without sleeping with Don Draper to get ahead. For the event, she wears a black silk dupioni bubble dress with embroidered details. She decided on a bright red clutch purse to add a little spark to her ensemble. Although she wore her bolero to the event, she decided the dress made more of an impact without it.
