Welcome to SKS Design. I am a professional dancer living and working in the Greater Pittsburgh Area. I took up sewing a few years ago in order to make dresses for dancesport showcases and competitions. Dancesport gowns are like no other kind of garment; they must move with the body, free of constriction. An ordinary ball gown or cocktail dress that may be the height of fashion out on the town is bulky and limiting for the dancesport hobbyist or professional. The sparkle of a thousand rhinestones, which might be too gaudy for even the dressiest gala event, is a necessity on the dancesport ballroom floor. Learning to sew dancesport clothing for me has been an exploration of methods and style, research and hybridization. I am pleased to share my creations with other dancesport aficionados through this website. Included on this site is a gallery archive of my work, a weblog chronicling my former and current projects and information on the custom clothing design services I offer. |
