The Challenge.

Every year I have that 1 dress that makes me sweat with excitement just at the thought of making it. I sometimes fear the my knowledge and interpretation of the idea won't do justice to the desired dress. And every time I have one of those I pleasantly surprise everyone, myself included. So far this year I made Alissa Flemmer's matric dance dress. I was excited with the results. The other challenge was making two major dresses at the same time for the same event. Although Siyolise's dress wasn't a breeze it was much easier to manage. Also very stunning. Let me know what you think.

What to do?

At Brown Stone Creations we pride ourselves with the level of professionalism and exclusiveness of our product. Question is: what to do with that 1 client that likes everyone else's styles and designs? I know I'm not the only designer/garment technologist that struggles with such clients. How do you convince them that they simply look better with their own individual identity? *chronicles of the clothing biz*

First bulk stock

So I'm a young designer/garment technologist, got the big break. 30 dresses to sell in a new boutique in Johannesburg, South Africa. After the excitement wore off the; work began. Fabric selection -> pattern making -> cutting -> stitching -> pressing -> packaging -> delivery. The first cycle was complete. Thank God it was a success. If you are in Johannesburg you can purchase the latest Brown Stone Creations range at Lumoo Lifestyle Boutique.
