Celia Rehm has been sewing all her life, but only received a sewing machine during her freshman year. Photographs included in this newsletter are of designs from a fashion show she participated in last spring. She is constantly sewing up new dresses, purses, skirts and many other items.
Most of the designs shown at right have intricate beading on the top of the dress. Celia “plans to go to college at a school of design, and make clothes all her life.”
Celia Rehm, a junior at Bellaire and in her second year of sewing class, was awarded "Most Creative" at this year's Contemporary Arts Museum Teen Council Fashion Show. The award was the highest rank of the three honors awarded to the designers, in which there were more than thirty. Similar to last year, her designs included much detail with beads and hand sewing, and each was hand-made without any sort of pattern. Ms. Rehm's five piece showcase was exhibited on April 2, 2009.
