Queen Catherine of Aragon - Snake Skin in Natural Snake Skin
There are so many layers to this very strong Queen who was born into Spanish Royalty. That’s why I designed the leathers to layer this very regal bootie. The overlapping leather layers on this shoe represent the strength of the Queen, the depth of her soul, the pain she experienced with each miscarriage she had, the love she had for her one surviving daughter Mary, and the strength and dignity she had to maintain when the King created his own Church so he could divorce and remarry another younger woman. Queen Catherine had a very difficult life. You can read more about Susie's inspiration and find these and many other stunners on her website  www.susiesawaya.com.au/

An Inspiring Success Story - Introducing a rising Fashion Designer Kelly Small.

One of Olena Luggassi ‘s students Kelly Small is creating unique elegant Wedding dresses. She runs Pristine Weddings & Events and now designs Wedding gowns for her beautiful customers. 

In Kelly’s words:
“I used to own a Bridal Shop & I just loved it. I started researching fabrics, beading, and courses & learning as much as I could, as I knew this is what I wanted to do… My drawings frustrate me sometimes but I just have not given up & have had the help of Olena Luggassi to teach me how to draw the designs I had in mind. Olena has helped me so much just through emails, sharing contacts, fabrics etc, her help is greatly appreciated…

I have designed and produced a beautiful Wedding Gown – Olivia Grace. It is still a sample but this is the first step of my fashion design career. The fabrics I used were Ivory Satin & Organza with the bust heavily beaded with a lace-up back…

 There is no way to describe the feeling of opening an email with photos of the finished Wedding Dress that you designed it is so surreal & amazing…Follow your dreams till the end & never give up!”

If you are a new bride, don not look further,  Follow Kelly Small on her Facebook page - Pristine Weddings & Events and she will create a Wedding gown for you too.
