    Default Anybody in SoCal who can sew?

    I've got a huge piece of gorgeous dark red velvet and I want a little stripper-dress made out of it for Christmas. Maybe with some white trim or something, and maybe a little choker to match. I know the kind of dress I want but I can't sew! Is there anyone around here who I could show the design to and hand over the fabric? I'd be willing to pay whatever you think is fair!

    I just met two students from FIDM that would have jumped at this. LA has two strong fashion design schools where students are required to pay for materials. The richer girls go to FIDM, and the less wealthy but still talented go to LATTC.

    Both are strong, although from what I was told are not quite Parsons in NYC. If you show up with a bunch of cool material, you wont have to look far for what you want. You could always go talk to one of the profs. Make sure you tell them you have a HUGE interest in fashion design.

    Or you could hang out at the Golden Gopher or Hanks in downtown LA and take your chances. I wouldn't go alone. The bars are safe, but the streets are not.

    yekhefah if you don't find anyone maybe you could take your fabric to strings by judith---do you know where that is? maybe she could make the dress for you at a decent price?
