Go to the library (for a prom dress?)

High school proms are often unforgettable celebrations for teens preparing to start a new chapter of their lives. But unfortunately, prom outfits can be very expensive. That's why the public libraries in Dallas, Texas, started giving away hundreds of free prom dresses to high school students.


For the sixth year in a row, the libraries hosted their Fairy Tale Closet program, during which students are encouraged to hunt through racks of free new, and gently used, formal wear that were donated by residents and retail outlets.  The event not only helps graduating seniors to save money for college, but it helps teens feel more comfortable using the library as a valuable resource for their academic and personal needs.

    Who is the most underrated fashion designer working today?
    I have to say MY MUM for this question. She works from home and has done many wedding dresses - including mine which was a huge ball gown with layers of material. Even i don't understand how she managed to do this gown at home.
    The fabric and all was ordered over the internet from places she found. Embroidery was done by someone and my mum stitched everything up to make this masterpiece. The sleeves (below) are my favourite.

    On her sewing machine at home - she sews many wedding dresses, Most Unique Prom Dress, everyday dresses, coats, jackets, trousers, custom designs, you name it - shes done it..

    Yet she has not received the merit, recognition or praise it deserves. She is happy when her customers are happy. My mum learnt sewing on her own and been sewing since the age of 14.

    That is where i get the love of fashion from. Since childhood, me and my mum would draw out designs seen in our heads and she would make them. I would love wearing them all - it totally gave me the chance to stand out and be completely different. I felt unique.
