I used to spend my nights oversewing dresses for a local dressmaker in order to pay for my school equipment.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I started dressing vintage when I was a teenager because I didn't have money for designer clothes.
I wore dresses all the time. I like to wear dresses.
I grew up wearing a uniform to school, and now I have my stylist come to my apartment and create outfits for me to wear. Otherwise, I'd never get dressed.
During holiday parties I end up recycling a lot of my cocktail dresses and just wearing a layering piece, like a blazer and tights, with it.
I was always taught how to dress for the occasion.
My dresses are very reasonably priced, for dresses that are cut on the body.
I don't actually keep the dresses I've worn during other friends' weddings. Closets are small in New York City - I can't be squandering space on bridesmaid dresses.
In L.A., I did a lot of vintage flea market dresses and Doc Martens.
I used to sneak into my mother's closet and try to wear her lingerie to school.
I got a custom-made silk dress from a Chinese tailor for really cheap. I sketched it out on a piece of paper, and they took my measurements and made the dress for me in a day!
