Spring is finally here as of today!
Now we can begin the Prom Season 2011. This year shoes will play a very big part of your accessories. So ladies make sure you can walk in your shoes and pick a shoe that is easy to walk in. If all else fails platforms are the easies to walk in, just practice and you'll see what I'm talking about.
To the young ladies that are getting gowns made, it's not too late for you to enter
"Get Your Walk On" for 2011 contest. But make sure you cast your vote for 2010’s Contest on HGProms website or on YouTube.

Until next time

If so let me know what dress or gown you liked best and we can have a fun discussion about what we liked and didn't like!

HATS

Hats have been a part of history since the Ancient Greece. The first recorded hat was called Pileus, which was associated with slaves. This hat represented their freedom from bondage. In 1529, women’s hats emerged in Milan & Northern Italian regions.
During the 19th century, the bonnet was the most popular amongst women. By the 1920’s, more hats became available to women. With all the different styles & materials Millerns (Hat makers) relied on. By the 1930’s- 1950’s, New York City become the world’s leading millinery makers.
As the years went on trends & styles of fashions pushed hats back, but today they made there way back to the fore front. Hats can make an impact or add on for the season. Here at House of Gemeaux we can meet that need!
Until next time!

Back to School

Hi yall doing today !

God is good and Greatly to be praised! Thank you for coming back this Sunday. Last week I mentioned how these two young adults where interested in setting their own trend for the first day of school. Well I have the pictures to prove it.

Their vests looks the same, but 2 different fabrics were used.I love it when young people have their own sense of style. They are not followers, they set the stage for others to know that they are trendsetters.

Feel free to make a comment. Until next time!

Welcome!

Welcome to House of Gemeaux! I want to share with you the behind the scences of the fashion world. Its not all glamour but it can be fun and a very creative challenge.

Throughout this blog I will show you how I create designs for different clients throughout the year. The process of seeing a sketch or design come to life at my fingertips. The end result can be mixed but it is always a "wild" ride from start to finish.

So sit back and experience the House Of Gemeaux...

Until next time,
