It's funny, I can even hear disco music in my head when I look at this picture! It's so cool! Love the belt, love the jacket, love the tights, lurve the shoes! You look like you're ready to go dancing! It's my birthday today (the 27th, here in Oz) and that look is just how I feel! TWO HUNDRED ELEVEN KIDS! You really have worked hard!

I already feel nostalgic: what am I gonna do now when I arrive at the office in the morning and switch my computer on? This adventure has gone too fast, but I guess that time flies when you enjoy something... And I did indeed LOVE it! :-) Great job, Sheena! I'll keep talking about your project!

I still have this album...it was called a "record" back then, kids. It spun on a device called a "turntable." Sheena--thank you for your work, your creativity and your endless inspiration. I will miss visiting this site daily (I have not missed a day...ever). Thanks and congratulations! "Toot, toot, Hey, Beep, beep!"

Amazing imagination. Such an ingeniously simple idea. I've wanted a personal uniform all my life, but one that fits every mood, doesn't look like anybody else's, with style, versatility as well as ease of movement. You've done all that over and over!

@Ina – oops, forgot to mention the earrings....precious vintage finds from the Dumbo flea market.

@ person who wrote @ Ramon - methinks the poor lad was merely implying - tongue-in-cheek - that he will miss the Project. As will many. Way to go sistah!

Awesome outfit. Coolest tights I've seen. You're art and an icon. Even though it's been a long year, I'm sad the project is coming to an end!

A belt as a necklace! Wow - only you can pull off this amazingness! It totally works on you - So creative.
Posted 3514 days ago.
I do love a good blast to the past. I know you don't take requests (and rightly so) but if you could pull a Victoriana (or, a touch of Regency, that would be interesting to see) one last time that would be great. (...) I am SO going to miss this.
