VELVET, is my favorite fabric. Let me explain why…
As a child I used to play dress up in all my mother’s clothes. The most standout piece was her matching blue velvet skirt and corset, one she had custom made for her 50th millennium New Years Eve birthday party and I will always remember her in it…

January 16, 2012Hello! I found it on http://www.treadwaygallery.com/ONLINECATALOGS/MARCH2006/1101-END.html, it was from 2006 on an auction site, I believe it has probably been sold but you could check out their site and see if they still have it, or perhaps know where you can find something similar. It's absolutely beautiful!
