Goodwill Rock the Runway – Designer Cleo Faucette

When I first embarked on this journey with Goodwill Rock the Runway, I must admit I didn't know what to expect. I was first and foremost nerves because i would be competing with several students who younger designers in this arena. I was also pretty nervous because I hadn't designed a couture piece in many years and wasn't sure if i still had my creative mind to do so. My first couple of visits to the Goodwill were ill shot, there were so many things to look through and pick from that it was overwhelming. So, I decided to make [...]

I thought it was just a beautiful fabric and new right away that I wanted to make a long maxi dress with this shower curtain. So, I laid the material out trying [...]

Transition to Fall with Summer Dresses/Skirts in tow!!

At the beginning of every fall season, I take a look at my summer wear to decide what I can carry over for Fall. I have been doing this process for as long as I can remember.
