Distinctly Duralee

We are loving Duralee this Summer! Below are new additions to our extensive fabric library from the Duralee Designer line.  Eileen Kathryn Boyd ‘s new designer collection is so fresh and fun! 5 of the awesome sample books filled with bold colors and contemporary patterns and textures.

ASID Community Services Project

This year’s ASID Community Services Project benefitted Boys Hope Girls Hope of Southern California. ASID designers and industry partners donated their talents and volunteered to renovate the Boys’ Hope Home. The renovation started  June 17th and was revealed this weekend to the six boys and two house parents living there. Judy’s Custom Workroom was contacted late last week so we were only able to donate a dozen rolls of fabric but we look forward to contributing more to future community services projects. Congrats to the ASID Community Services Chair, designer Stephanie Cook, for all of her hard work! Can’t wait to see photos of the completed home!

 


Designer Runway Results

The Orange County ASID Designer Runway was a success! We were blown away with what all the teams came up with. So creative!

Our team was led by Anita Jacobi and included Judy’s Custom Workroom’s Elizabeth Bradford (model), Lupe Ortiz, and artist Georgeana Ireland. We had to come up with a concept beforehand, but we had no idea what colors, patterns, or types of fabrics we would be given to work with (in just 90 minutes!) until we got to the design center. We found inspiration in Ke$ha and hoped to be given edgy modern fabrics. Of course we were given beautiful feminine fabrics from Kravet, so it was even more of a challenge creating a rebellious”Ke$ha” look!

TEAM CONCEPT: “Our inspiration came from the music artist Ke$ha and her song ‘We R Who We R’. Ke$ha’s rebellious grungy-chic flare shows us there are no rules when it comes to fashion. Her song is all about being confident with your personal style and making a statement. You are who you are, so own it!”

For our first time participating, we were pretty proud of ourselves. We had a great time and thank all the sponsors, volunteers, celebrity judges, and those who came out to support Working Wardrobes. If you did not make it this year, you will have to attend next year’s event! So much fun!
