So what is a dress form?
A
dress form is used to give a three-dimensional view on the article of clothing that is being sewed. They come in all sizes and shapes for almost every article of clothing that can be made. When a piece of clothing is made, it can be put on the dress form so one can see how the piece of clothing turned out. Then one can make alterations upon the clothing after seeing what it looks like on a body.
The Little Pink Dress Project will be sending dress forms to artists. The artists will then design/decorate the form in the style of their choosing and send it back to us. We will be holding a gala inwhich we will auction these dress forms to raise funds for the "dream center." A place for street prostitutes to get rest, food, shelter, and support if they are wanting to quit walking the streets and find new employment and a new lifestyle.
Soon we will be posting the true stories of prostitutes who have or have not made it off of the streets. We found their stories compelling and we think you will as well. Let’s all work together to give hope where it seems like there isn’t any left.
Amor y respeto,
