GLAMOROUS means beauty and excitement. It’s derived from the Scottish word "gramarye " meaning magic , enchantment , spell .
To me GLAMOROUS means something classic but sexy , for example : Marilyn Monroe – now she … with her looks , charm and trademark red lipstick … was definitely glamorous !
But then glamour is not restricted to people. Anything luxurious , sophisticated and with a tad bit of glitz could be GLAMOROUS.
I find glamour in luxurious interiors , a piece of furniture , a classic piece of jewellery …. a pair of gold Christian Loubotin shoes ( I don’t own one but I would die for a pair ) .
The Red sole … a stroke of genius – so sexy and so … ummm … GLAMOROUS !
I have tried to incorporate all of these in my cake .
I have hand painted Marilyn Monroe’s facial sketch ( hope there is a resemblance ) and handwritten synonyms for the word GLAMOROUS.
For the 2nd tier I have used Marble effect with inlay work in gold and silver … it was back breaking but totally loved doing this.
And the top tier has been decorated in wafer paper techniques using edible glitter sugar and dregees.
For the topper I created a gumpaste Christian Loubotin shoe. … a 1st for me and was extremely apprehensive of replicating a Loubotin , I tried the best I could .
I hope I have done justice to the theme.
Thank you all for making time to read this and for viewing my creation . :) x
