I have no idea why I picked this Project Runway dress for an inspiration. Perhaps it's because the dress is so bad I wanted the challenge to make it right!

I have to admit I struggled at first with this one. Using a literal interpretation I had lots of plaid looking strokes throughout the entire painting. That was dumb ... it it's a bad dress then don't create too similar of a painting. It wasn't until I deviated much father away that I started liking the painting!

This Laura Bennet dress, featured in her finale collection in Season 3, is often found on the internet in "the best ever" Project Runway design collections. 

Laura's looks all season long showed her signature elegant sophisticated look. Her final collection on the catwalk was as usual very elegant and sophisticated. Even though she didn't win, I love this dress.

I used a very literal interpretation of the dress for my painting. I think it would look fabulous in a very modern living room!
