giorgia ✿

❄ some of giorgia's 2009 winter collection
























❀ me, donna & giorgia












❀ jerry and I have been giving each other the silent treatment all day, after an argument over a movie title.... when there's not much drama in our lives, we just create our own! ;o)

i was browsing facebook and came across a newspaper clipping, featuring a stunning ball-gown, created by my very own, super-talented cousin, giorgia, who's recently finished her degree in fashion design. she's starting her own fashion label, which is sure to be a huge success...

i remember the two of us as teenagers, cutting big triangles out of the bottoms of all our jeans to make them into flares and sewing in triangles of embroidered flowers. then getting out nanna's sewing machine and making little hippy skirts. my projects were always half-arsed, with the pockets on crooked, the hem hanging down and loose threads everywhere (and i wore them like that!) but giorgia always took hers home and did the finishing touches...

every time i've seen her over the last few years she's been wearing one of her own beautiful creations and now she's in newspapers and starting to advertise for her new collection... the dresses are gorgeous! when (and if) i ever get married, i want my dress to be made by giorgia :o)

on that note, i guess i should start speaking to jerry again...
