This powerful true story reveals what happens when society's elite question how you could possibly afford your stunning gown—only to discover you designed it yourself. At the Metropolitan Arts Foundation's Education Excellence Gala, I was surrounded by wealthy philanthropists who assumed a public school art teacher couldn't own something so sophisticated. "How on earth did you manage to afford something so exquisite on a teacher's salary?" Penelope Ashworth asked with a cutting smile, expecting me to admit it was rented or fake. When I revealed I'd designed and sewn the midnight blue silk gown myself—with help from my sixth-grade students who did the intricate beadwork—their assumptions about creativity, class, and where artistic talent comes from completely shattered. This is my emotional journey from underestimated educator to institutional revolutionary.
