For the audition and all rounds up to the final rounds, I scoured thrift stores all across Southern California and found clothes that I then modified to perfectly fit the "trailer classy" look that I have so carefully created for myself. (helpful hint) I find a lot of success in the Hospice Thrift Stores in fancy towns because those rich broads often died in the sexiest clothes. For the semi finals and finals I was able to work with the NBC clothing designers and we designed the jackets and dresses together, the designers totally got my look and it was a wonderful experience working with them. For the Champions show, that fabulous sequin dress with the huge butterfly sleeves was designed by Rene.
