"Let them eat Cake"

Local artist/designer/cartoon character, Miss Cake just keeps getting cuter. Saturday night, she showed her fashion designs, that are currently sold at the Black Market in Lincoln and Scout, in the first ever Loom Weaves Fashion event. 
The monthly Loom parties are usually held at Espana Tapas Bar in Benson, and are focused on bringing different cultures together, "weaving the social fabric through dance." 
Fashion Loom allowed local designers to showcase their designs on models during the party.
Multi-faceted Miss Cake is not only a seamstress, but a painter and graphic designer. She has an Etsy site where she sells stationary, underwear bowls, barrettes, and tongue-adorned canvas tote bags.
I describe her style as one part Dr. Seuss, one part Fafi mixed with one part candy-coated japlepeno baked to perfection at 350 degrees. 
Here am I wearing one of her custom dresses. Note the "Let Them Eat Cake" writing on my arms.
Let's just say I should have eaten the cake before I hit the vodka.
