This is my entry for the weekend engagement concept:

"If you had to wear the same outfit every day for the rest of your life what would you choose and why?"

If I were to wear a particular outfit everyday for the rest of my life I would choose my favourite dress, my black gown with my red kimono jacket. This combination and the color was perfect for me. I choose to wear this same outfit for almost all outings because it was my favorite. My mum had once scolded me why I wear the same outfit for almost every occasion and outings especially on Sundays, but, honestly I don't mind wearing them everyday if need be friends always smile and compliment me anytime I wore this dress in their presence.

Why I like this particular dress. A flashback to when I started learning fashion designing, I would always gather money to get myself a fabric just to try out a particular style I have seen outside or on the internet. So I got myself a black fabric from the market and made a very beautiful dress. I didn't like the dress then for some reasons but I was very proud for the fact that I made the dress myself. Then my dad gave me a red fabric as a gift, I was so happy because it made the cloth came right on time, it made the perfect combination I thought of at that moment. I used the red fabric to make an armless kimono jacket which I meant to wear on top of the black gown I had sewed earlier and it was perfect.

Since then, I liked to wear both outfit and I won't mind wearing them everyday. I like this cloth and I wore it because I liked the pride I always have anytime people saw me wearing this outfit, I would gladly tell them I made the dress myself and I got a lot of compliments which makes me happy. Even though I have made many more dresses apart from this particular one, it still remained my favorite of all. I wore anytime of shoe on it whenever I am wearing this outfit though I wear sneakers or heels most time.

Part of this outfit was gifted by my dad and part of it was bought by myself which was part of the reasons why I like the dress and the dress had made me outstanding among others. Many have always described me as "the lady in a red jacket" and all sorts of descriptions and they all pleasing to me.

Thank you for reading.
