Let the games begin. We have a slew of talent posted on our website featuring a sweet little dress designed my Sam. Not only is the dress amazing but the photos are beyond fantastic.
The challenge was to to take the dress and put your own personal spin on it. There were no requirements or constraints. It was all up to the photographer to style the shot.
So check it out and be sure to vote for your favorite. The winner will get an all expense paid trip for 2 to our Dress Rehearsal in January. They'll be one of the few who get to see the line before anyone else.
RULES: Voting is done by adding your favorite photographers to your shopping bag and then checking out. You can add as many photographers as you want to your bag, but don't waste your time adding a photographer a million times to your bag because multiple votes for the same photographer in one bag are ignored. Also, you can check out only once from your IP address. Checking out more than once from your IP address will not be counted in our system. Voting will end Sunday, December 6 at Midnight Eastern. Voting takes place on the Matilda Jane Clothing website.
Oh, when you hit Submit, a confirmation page appears asking you to double check everything. You must hit Submit one more time on this page for your votes to register.


Awesome work everyone! Such an honor to be among you:)

I hope that you are ordering this dress in mass supply-we are all going to have to have one!!!

Yeah, I agree with Michelle! We should do something for Kate and her family! Count me in no matter what it is! I have 2 beautiful healthy children and can't imagine a tragedy like that.

Her on Dr. Phil website wearing the Maggie Stew.
There is a link on the site above to donate. MJ fans can unite this holiday season to help a little girl out. Wonder how much we could collectively donate. :-)

In response to the Dr. Phil show comment....this may not be national tv, but I was recently in the Chattanooga, TN viewing area and a local Xmas commercial featured a family and the little girl was wearing MJ. She looked gorgeous, of course.

Tracy...AWESOME idea about the MJ Christmas gift! I know it's not my clothes to give but that would be super cool! :) Great photos BTW....so hard to choose!
Posted by: Mel S. | December 01, 2009 at 10:42 PM
HOLY BABACOLY!!! Are you kidding me? Those are more beautiful than I could have imagined. I couldn't choose just one, but as GORGE as they all were, I voted for the ones that had the most creativity involved with the shot, not just a great picture. In awe. And props to Sam for making the most darling piece. (do I see project runway in her future?) Of course everyone will be busting down your door, uh, email for that one!!! Thank you for the wonderful eye candy this evening-made my night! xo

Please tell me you are going to make this dress. I must get one. It is just beautiful. Nice work Sam. The pictures are so cute.

It's true! If you watch the preview on the Dr. Phil site for the Wednesday show, you will see the little girl in the Maggie Stew!! Our Denise has made National TV and I feel like a proud parent!!! That disco print just rocks and SO DO YOU!!! An awesome Christmas would be to find out who the little girl is and send her a special MJC package for her to twirl~~ Maybe the PuRe LoVe dress that we've all been staring at but can't have??? National TV!! Such a Rock STAR!!!!!!!!
Posted by: Tracy | December 01, 2009 at 09:07 PM
All of the photos were excellent. Sam's creation was utterly gorgeous.

This is unrelated to your post, but just saw on a Dr. Phil preview for tomorrow maybe, a little girl struggling with what looks to be a life threatening disease....it caught my eye b/c the little sweetie was wearing Matilda Jane! I think it was the Maggie dress from GB2....precious!
