My Dress Debut

I wore my Vlisco fabric dress to The Explorers Club in New York City for the African Parks Gala. Everyone loved it and it got me a mention and photograph in New York's Social Diary!

I thought it would be the perfect thing to wear. The fabric design is very African and the dress itself was made by a South African - my neighbor Merry who is a librarian by day and a seamstress by night.

Comfortable - I was working - and easily recognizable - "Wrong seat assignment? Talk to that lady in the African print dress." Practical fashion.



PS My necklace is also South African from Studio 37A.
