The trunk show was a
success and a lot of people came to see our designs. At first, I was not sure
what a trunk show was, or how things would work but I learned that it’s more of
an informal fashion show where people come to you and ask you to talk about
your work. This was an interesting
experience for me because I have never been part of a trunk show.
Usually,
I’m a very quiet person and tend to keep to myself unless I’m around friends or
people I know. I had to step outside my comfort zone and talk to strangers
about my work. It was a lot easier than I thought it would be. Usually, when I
have to make a speech, I get nervous and tend to stutter, but in this case I
found it easy to talk to other people because it was a more loose setting. I
was actually enjoying myself, and having people come up to me and ask me
questions about my design. I was happy to know that people were actually
interested in hearing what I had to say.
The
overall process of constructing the garment and participating in this event was
fun. I had a few problems along the way like working with the mesh fabric of
the upper bodice. I had to take a piece out, after I was done constructing the
garment because it had a bad tear. I also had a couple of problems with my
model’s fit. I was able to solve and correct these problems right away. I had a
great time participating and I would do it again given the opportunity.
