Donna & The Red Dress

Most women I know love glamour whether they live a glamourous life or not.  We are attracted to it. We want to know what it feels like.  Its our fascination with glamour that makes us pick up magazines and follow stars because their glamourous life intrigues us.

This is the very thing that our photoshoots gives to our muses, a powerful and glamourous feeling.
And Donna was no exception.  She radiated like I've never seen her radiate before.  She glowed.  I believe part of the reason women glow is because of an inner feeling and she knew that during this shoot she'd feel like a million bucks before she even woke up that morning.  And sure enough when she showed up she sparkled radiance.  (Is that even possible to sparkle radiance?)  Well she did.

The backdrop is always important on a shoot and finding the right location can be hard but this spot fits her look perfectly.  It's a little place near Memorial Park on Ocean Blvd.  Lucky for us the owners didn't mind us shooting there.

This isn't the first time that during a shoot we stumbled upon a little girl who found our shoot and saw magic.  Donna was standing off of the path and a little girl came running "Mommy, a real princess!"  "Mommy Mommy Mommy!"  Donna and I looked at each other because we both did the same thing during the mermaid shoot and we melted.  Yes, I believe it starts very young.  Young girls have this innate sense of beauty and loveliness; we want it.  We crave it.  From a small child we have this need.  And how fitting to be the real live actuality of that for this little girl.  Donna, just turned and waved, to which the little girl fell on the ground and insisted on watching us.  So incredibly cute!

The dress is made in two parts, the corset on top with boning and the skirt.  The skirt section has more yardage than you'd think, around 200 yards of tulle, plus a wire underskirt.  So it's a lot of dress, but the reaction to the dress has served as a great reminder of what Pretty Muse is all about, beauty and femininity.  This dress delivers that in spades.  I wonder who will wear it next.
