FF: Describe the general process you go<br />
through to select a piece of clothing? <br />
NS: When I select a piece of clothing,<br />
especially a gown, I do not have to look at<br />
it for a long time. I know within seconds if it’s<br />
something I can work with, or something that<br />
will be a heavenly creation with the help from<br />
my amazing seamstress, Irene Jameson. <br />
When purchasing or designing for my stores,<br />
I tend to pick things that really jump out at me.<br />
I like things that will allow my clients to have a<br />
unique style. I love very rich and airy fabrics<br />
for the flowy-type dresses and gowns, but<br />
I also love gorgeous colorful stones, which<br />
can add detail to bodice styles.<br />
I love my gowns to have depth and a clean<br />
look inside and outside. The dresses I<br />
love to pick out the most are those for my<br />
pageant girls. I want them to look amazing<br />
while feeling great. Again, I must stress<br />
the great work my seamstress, Irene, does<br />
by making the gowns like second skin for<br />
these girls. She has a very rich eye and is<br />
my partner in another one of my stores.<br />
FF: From your experience, what do you<br />
believe makes a quality gown? <br />

NS: A quality gown is first and foremost<br />
beautiful. It has rich fabric, impeccable<br />
design, great fit, clear clean stones,<br />
and a great line that follows the body where<br />
it should.<br />
