If you like it, why not?


I used to remark bitterly of many of the clothes I wore
as a child "it looks like curtain material."

Very likely it was. Mom bought fabric in lots, unseen,
specifying only the weight.

LOL Once for an office Christmas party (in my very-much-younger and
single days), I made a long, halter-style dress of red crushed velvet
that came from a sale table. Someone told me later that one of our
pious co-workers had made a snide remark about it looking like
'upholstery material'. I just considered the source...remembering that
the guys had seemed to like it just fine.

THE WIND"?

Creative people can make nice things with whatever they find... and
"Those remarks are mostly done by those who won`t do the creative
effort.... After some years it stopped bothering me ,,, sometimes i
offer those people to make something for them ,,, I dress with clothes
that fit me and my needs, and that is that ,,,
And i can even vouch that it hepled me to get my Museum exhibition ,
the curator wrote in an article that she noted my `different`
clothes ,,,,, Thus go on use what ever you like ,,,
