Cheri’s sketch for “Diamas”
On the runway in Houston
Notes about Cheri’s design for the theme “Diamond Odyssey”: Born from deep within the earth’s fiery interior (just as diamonds are), she’s powerful, invincible and ready for adventure…she’s Diamas. Her suit is of silk knit, painted in warm golden hues with diamond stripes. Her flowing cape, shades of cherry, plum and black, is created from silk organza attached to a velvet “collar”. Diamas (Medieval Latin) derived from Greek word adamas, from which diamond originates. -The hardest substance known; unbreakable.
