"I've worked as a seamstress for movie productions for some time now," says Jane Ryder. "Among my work has been the gowns worn by actress Megan Brown for the premieres of the Kevin Costner movie Mr Brooks. When I began to collect the names of local artists and craftsmen for a shop to be called Designers Consortium, someone said 'Jane, you should put together an entire movie crew.'"
Thus we watch the evolution of the ancillary pieces of the movie production puzzle.
The new boutique, aimed at serving the movie industry as well as the public, is located at 208 E. King's Highway in Shreveport, across from Counter Culture. It will open Saturday, says Ms Ryder. Included in the opening roster:
Willie's Dream Gowns (Willie Rayburn)
