Sky Stone at the Great Outdoors

I finished this dress along with a couple of other dresses a few months ago, pre-COVID, and kept waiting for this all to end, but after June hit, I could not wait any longer. So I collaborated with a small vendor team and we made sure to keep a distance when possible (hard with a model) and we all wore facemasks as well, including our model.

Since Callie and the photographer could stay 6 ft apart because of her long lens, we were able to get some shots in between with no mask.

The Sky Stone gown is named after the turquoise Sky Stone. Sky Stone dates back far as the mummy period, but it has a great meaning to the Native American culture, and that is where I borrowed the name from for my gown with turquoise details. They used to say it is the “stone that stole its color from the sky, …and it brings prosperity, good luck, and power” -(Kallstrom)

Designed to be comfortable, effortless, and carefree, like the badass women of the Southwest. Other dresses/jumpsuits in the collection include Mexican inspired embroidery. Link at the bottom of this blog post.
