Answer Example
"I had made this dress for a woman and she was so happy with it that she posted it on Facebook on Instagram, and over a hundred people liked the dress!
It was really special because I was really in the zone when I met with her and designed it. I noticed that she was wearing a cream colored sweater, and she had sapphire earrings. I noticed the same color combination in a few of her happiest photos. So I created a dress inspired by those colors. It really showed my attention to detail, and it was so exciting to delight someone that way!"
