Haute Couture3 Finale!  By this point, you’ve had 4 months to think about this.  You made it this far, it better be good. 

 

1 Examples of Closet Essentials include “Little Black Dress”, “White Button Down Shirt”, “Cardigan”, “Long Sleeve Tees”, or “Jeans”.  This list is by no means complete, so pick one and support it in your descriptive paragraph.

2 Individually set by moi.

3 Haute couture (French for "high sewing" or "high dressmaking") refers to the creation of exclusive custom-fitted clothing. Haute couture is made to order for a specific customer, and it is usually made from high-quality, expensive fabric and sewn with extreme attention to detail and finish, often using time-consuming, hand-executed techniques

 

Please do not destroy the models.  They belong to Melissa and Joy, not you.  Use Velcro.  Ask one of the prior contestants or me if you need guidance.
