"Personally I'm drawn more towards the warmer tones, more towards ivory for the collections," George says of her current collection that was shown at Alberta Fashion week in October of 2009.
Unlike the stark contrast of pure white, ivory or other off-whites, are easier for most women to wear.
The dresses of George's that hang in Naked Fashion Boutique, where she is manager, are all done in ivory and gold, and adorned with little flowers in both colours.
The flowers are inspired by Hungarian embroidery said George, who hand-makes all the little flowers, and plans to continue using them for her next collection, with pearl centers.
"I'm really looking forward to the next collection, it's inspired by Pride and Prejudice."
Using each of the ladies from the classic novel as an inspiration, her next collection will have dresses based upon the personalities of the girls.
"Kitty is so playful, and Lydia is flirty and fun," says George as she's flipping through her sketch book, each page showcasing a different character.
"Jane is sophisticated of course, and Elizabeth, she will be the showstopper."
George plans to have this collection out by September, and to continue having a new collection out every year or two.
Also doing a lot custom work, she is happy to be designing bridal dresses. "With these dresses I feel I get to be most creative."
Every wedding is such a big deal said George and she loves just being part of everyones experience.
