We would sit side-by-side and she would show me how to match colors and patterns up to make a perfect shoulder, and would encourage me to mix and match fabrics and details for my own dresses (which I would later wear to death since I made them and thought- rightly- that they were the most beautiful in the world!). Her lessons have always inspired the way I dress and the clothes I buy- even when I was a teenager and just wanted to look like 'everyone else'.
