My husband the couturier... Part 2 This over the top dress inspired by Versace was donated to the Robert Tonner company.
The dress, fur coat, earrings and shoes were all crafted by Drew and auctioned for charity in a wardrobe truck. The trunk sold for $12,000 and is now on display in a museum (somewhere) in Florida. The dress is made of hand pleated silk, the beading is also done by hand over net. The fur coat is made of ermine and is lined and labled "DREW." He lables all of his designs which adds to the magic! The shoes are made of silk and leather with pearl drops. Sir Charles James dress is made of gold ribbon sown together to make fabric and peach silk. The James original gown, a vintage design from the 1950s, is pictured on the right. The dress was designed for a friend, this picture won first prize in a magazine photo contest. The background is not paint- it's lighting and scrims. and tiny shoes made the same way as for real people! My husband the couturier...

Dolls are his passion, but they are also serious business. No one is doing it quite like Drew and many are paying mega bucks to own his designs. Socks still got butt like a leather seat... | |

Again, truly amazing and beautiful! Does he do houses, too? Like the background in the Mommie Dearest photo? It would frustrate me too! But it relaxes him. The background in the "Mommie" photo is... are you ready for this... the inside of a doll truck THAT HE MADE from foam-core, covered in faux alligator vinyl, the inside is lined in peach silk moiré! He doesn't do houses, but ours is really beautiful. He started collecting Art Deco pieces in the 1970s when no one in our area wanted them and were throwing them out. The inside of your house looks like something from an old 1930s Hollywood movie. Chrome and lighted alabaster smoking stands, chrome and walnut club chairs and sofas, burled walnut deco furniture- bar, china, wardrodes. All the art work and accessories are also peroid deco. He's got too much style for one person! Socks still got butt like a leather seat... | |

But everything's just brilliant. How does he get all those tiny pleats in the dresses? I would just go insane with such tiny work. [Edited 6/17/05 11:24am] "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

same reason why straight women are sometimes obsessed with dressing men, perhaps. that, and it's just plain fun to do, no matter what sexual orientation you fall under. | |
