Tamara Tunie Hosts...

It was a last minute call and Thank God I answered! Tamara Tunie was hosting the Thurgood Marshall Front Row Fashion Show and she needed a dress for the event. I got 6 pieces to the office of The Ground Crew (back stage production company). Holding my breath, Patricia Polhill (office manager of The Ground Crew) then called a day later and said she would be wearing my two piece patch work jacket and short tulle skirt. I was stunned and excited. She also requested jewelry and that was happily provided by Beauloni Style.

This was a big event which featured 11 designers that included Tracey Reese, Lafayette 148, Douglas Says, and Sixxfoota. The event honored Beverly Johnson, Audrey Smaltz, Vanessa Williams, and Tyson Beckford to name a few (see complete list here). So I my little dress was going be in excellent company.
The night of the event is filled with much hustle bustle, as most fashion shows are. For the beginning of the event Miss Tunie wore a B Micheal gown which was beautiful.

Then for the opening of the fashion show she wore my little number. When she walked out on stage the audience cheered. I know they were happy to see her but I will take a little credit because she looked fabulous. I struggled to get a picture, this is what I got, back stage nothing.


Disappointed, but not undaunted I scored with a the website Film Magic.com.

This was a magical moment

My Biggest Fan

M.Elaine Bromfield First Bass at Washington Irving HS

My biggest fan was my mother. What ever I was doing, she was the person who would make the biggest fuss about how great it was. I remember when we couldn't get photographers to photograph our events, she was there with her "point and shoot" taking the best pictures. Next day she would be at Genovese for 1 hour photos getting double prints. I don't think I thanked her enough for this favor, but I really did appreciate it. My life is filled with so many of her standing ovations for me.

When she wasn't able to get out on her own, I took over with making sure she took her medication, doctor visits, and general care. She had difficulty giving up driving and her ability to come and go as she pleased, but my mother made up for it by "busting out orders". I didn't always like it but we would laugh and get on with the day.

My mother taught me to sew, took me to all the New York Museums (she was a NY school teacher), camping, and we drove cross country. She wanted me to know the world was my oyster and all I had to do was open it. I had a leather jacket that was very nice and my creative bug told me to cut the jacket up and make a patchwork bag. I was never punished, I think she just thought "her jacket, her creativity". Well, it was that or she just didn't realize I cut a beautiful jacket up. No matter, my mother was my biggest fan and I will miss her terribly.

As I was telling friends and family of the news, I lamented to one friend I don't know when I will get back into things. He said "Oh no, we don't have time for you to sit down. Plus if you don't have to worry anymore, because now you have an Angel". M.Elaine (Mommy) would say "I am fine, honey, you've got to earn a living".

So I am back to writing, creating and more with my angel in tow. She really is the 'Wind Beneath My Wings". I hope to make her proud.

Thank You Mommy For Every Thing
