Calling All Designers!

Designers: spread the word! This will be a fun occasion to get together with friends in the industry!

 


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!

Designer Runway

 

We’re getting excited to hit the catwalk! This Wednesday, June 15th, the Laguna Design Center is hosting ASID’s “Designer Runway” event benefitting Working Wardrobes. This is Judy’s Custom Workroom’s first year participating as a design team…

Teams of 4 ASID designers and industry partners have just 90 minutes to create an ensemble out of home fabrics and trims from participating showrooms and then have one “model” member of their team show it off on the runway . What makes this so challenging is that we have no idea what fabrics we will be given until we arrive that evening and we are not allowed to use any patterns or sewing machines. This should be interesting to say the least.

We would love to see you there. It should be a very fun night.  Click here to purchase tickets.

Wish us luck!
