Today, I worked half a day in morning, then went to Harrods—one of the most luxury department stores in the world—with a couple of friends after lunch. It's a part of a project which we're doing at the moment, and the aim of visiting Harrods was looking at well-made and hand-stitched dresses so that we could get any ideas for our own design and samples of embroidery.
I'd never been to Harrods before—I even didn't know where it was—and today I found out that it was absolutely full of beautiful stuff and of course everything is expensive, so I was embarrassed when one of the salesladies asked me ''Are you alright ma'am?''. On the other hand, looking around the super expensive clothes was very good experience actually, especially Dolce and Gabbana, Valentino and Prada was amazing as you can imagine, so I can say it was well worth visiting that kind of department store for your research, not for spending 4months flat rent or more.
Obviously my permanent interest is in embroidery, but I'd hardly ever fancy or tried sequin beading and ribbon embroidery before although I did know them. And now, I fell in love with them. ahhhh.
