RAWards 2012 Documentary Photo's by Madison Palmer

Putting on a runway show, as it turns out has countless responsibilities.  From the style of clothes to the type of smirk on each models face.  Should the hair be up, down..or both?  What you don't see is what it takes to turn this cyclone of productivity into a smooth production.  4 straight hours of madness, for 7 minutes, 9 seconds of sanity.
 
Below is a sample of that madness.  Documented beautifully by Madison Palmer, we are able to relive some of the moment forgotten in the turmoil.  It all happened so fast.  Thank you Madison.

How LissMee was born

I'm reflecting on the past month and the start of my new clothing line, LissMee. It's been a complete whirlwind and I can't believe it's getting the recognition we've received. I'm the luckiest girl in the world and so excited about the future.


Just a few weeks ago, I was approached by Jennifer Chipman, the director of Salt Lake City RAW: Natural Born Artists. I told her I had always wanted to launch a clothing line and she gave me a couple weeks to create a collection to be debuted at September's RAW show. 


Just one month later I found out I had gained the votes necessary to compete for the state title of Fashion Designer of the Year


I created some new pieces to better complete my line, worked like crazy, and won fashion designer of the year! I cried when they called my name.


Since then it's been one crazy, absolutely amazing dream-fulfilling, experience after another. Right now we're working on our website, doing as many photoshoots as possible, working out manufacturing details, and preparing for our line to be carried in stores.


Here, on LissMee's blog, I'll write about our new products, what we're up to, and invite you to join our journey in launching this business, getting inspiration, and what we're really all about. Take a look around and let us know what you think! We really want to hear from you. You'll also find our latest updates on Facebook:
