RCB Custom Shirt Featured on Red Hot Locks Sports Report

RCB Fashion had the honor of re-making several sports related t shirts for Kimberly Sargent. Kim does a lot of sports promotion at live events and on the web but wanted a more girly sexy t shirt look. She contacted RCB Fashion and we fixed her right up! If you watch the video below the first host is Kim wearing a black and white re-created t-shirt. We hope to do lots more work with her in the future.

RCB Fashion Custom Halloween Costume Re-used


RCB Fashion was contacted by a client to make his Halloween costume last year. The request was to make the striped circus suit that is featured in Seether's music video for their song Remedy. It took a lot of patience watching the video over and over to see all the details - of course no photos were to be found of this suit! A fun fact to making this outfit is it had to look dirty, used, worn, and old. After asking permission from my client, free reign was given to dirty up the fabric (the photo above was Nancy helping with this process). The entire costume from concept to completion was done purely via the internet and mail. When the costume was complete it was shipped out and delivered to the happy Craig Gum. He said he wore the outfit all day when he got it!

To wrap things up. We never got see photos of HIM wearing the costume, but seeing as he is an inventive photographer he found a way to get great use out of the crazy striped suit. The picture says a thousand words - GOOD JOB Craig!

New Years Resolutions


We are a few weeks into the New Year now, have you been working on your New Year's resolution?

Did you make a vow to be more crafty or take on a new hobby? If so, RCB Fashion offers sewing lessons for all ages and all levels. We can do individual lessons or group sessions, the group sessions lessen the cost per person. Lessons can be taught in my studio in Marietta, GA or at a location of your choice (additional fees may apply depending on the distance). A few lessons can help jump start a new seamstress or to hone skills of a more experienced seamstress. Email me for current rates and availability.

Did you make a resolution to go to the gym and lose weight for 2011? As your body transforms you will find that after a while your clothes just don't fit the same. With the rough economy we live in, look into altering your clothes rather then buy new ones. You will be amazed at how great some simple alterations will make you feel in your clothes. Gather up all of your ill fitting clothing and make an appointment with RCB Fashion to transform your clothing into proper fitting garments. You can always rehab an old outfit by changing lengths of skirts, making jeans into capris, the options are endless.

Did you make a vow to go out more or attend more functions? Look your best! Get a custom made outfit by RCB Fashion. Nothing feels better then a garment that is made specifically for you! We can transform any idea into reality from sketch to completed garment. All alterations are included in the quoted price as well! Don't hesitate to send your ideas to us to get a quote.

Miss Teen Georgia

It has been a while since we have had time to blog! There have been many new and exciting projects going on, but very little time to share.

Back in November, we were contacted to make a shirt and do some alterations for a contestant and family friend of mine, Lou Jane, for Miss Teen Georgia! I was very excited to jump on board for this project.

The girls competing in the pageant have very strict requirements for what they can or cannot wear for certain parts of the show. There was a dance routine that required a yellow shirt that was unique to the contestants personality. Lou Jane couldn't find anything in stores, so that is where RCB Fashion came in. She came up with a design and we executed it. Below is a photo from the outfit she wore for the dance routine.
The pagent took place in Canton, GA November 12-14. RCB Fashion was in attendance to support and see Lou Jane compete. Although I am sad to say that she did not win, she had a great experience and looked great! There are already plans for next year, so maybe we will get to make her gown!!!

Great Job Lou Jane!!!!
