I’m just finishing up Vogue 1090 – A Michael Kors design that I really like. I do think he is my ultimate fave designer, and even his perfume is my fragrance de choice.
The quandry today is what colour zipper to use. The dress is navy and white, with the white being the contrast. I have 4 choices- navy -centre application, white centre app, navy – invisible or white invisible. I do suppose there is a fifth choice- a chunky outside applied zipper..
They were supposed to audition for a spot today, but we have been on the go all day, and it doesn’t look promising for tonight either. My self imposed deadline is Wednesday night so that I can wear it in Philly, and I am fairly confident that will be possible. I think I am leaning towards a white invisible- any thoughts from you?
On the breaking news front…
I felt very glamourous last night- we had a 50th birthday party for myself and MyMike with so many friends and family. Our daughters surprised me by putting on a runway show for everyone, complete with a red carpet runway! They modeled showed off items I have made over the last 30 some odd years! How fun. Our chairs flanked the runway just like in a real fashion show, and we had music, commentary and even paparazzi! The girls went to so much work to make it a special and memorable evening- I love you girls!

Your girls know you well – it must have been 100% fun! I vote for white invisible but it would depend on how much blue there is in the print. You could do either, really. Have fun in Philly and we (Montreal planning crew) will be waiting for the debrief on what worked and what didn’t.
That is so wonderful. You should show pictures of the runway show!
Happy Birthday! Sounds like a really fun party!
My opinion on the zipper: Whatever fabric color is at the top of zipper should match the invisible zipper pull.
I vote for an exposed zipper in either white or navy.
What a great gift! I vote for white invisible OR exposed metal. I like my exposed metal zip skirt.
First of all, happy 50th!!!!
I’d go with an exposed zipper in the contrasting color. I think it would look good with this style. I did one and it was very easy!!! Too bad the rest of the dress didn’t look so hot.
