Gator Design by Lorelle

Lorelle LaBarge is now offering her design talents in making custom design Alligator vests. Lorelle has been in the wearable art world for 25 years. Her one-of-a-kind garments have traveled the world. She discovered her love for working with animal hides when she created a snake skin vest (complete with bones) which won the prestige award at Bazzar DelMundo in San Diego. The snake skin vest was featured in "Men's Vest" by the American Quilters' Society.

Please check back as pictures of Lorelle's creations will be posted on this site as they are finished!

Capt Phil with his 12' lizard from South Carolina's zone 3. It took more than a night to kill this one & a few hours to drag it in.
After my hunting buddy Randy Pounds left SC for work, I had to hunt solo. A gator this size is a real pain when you're on a big lake by yourself.

Leo Neuls of Chesterfield NJ harpooned this huge gator while hunting with GatorGuides.com in Polk county during a private lands hunt. We trolled onto this gator not knowing the size. The closer we got, the bigger it looked. Once harpooned, it dragged the boat around the lake, violently shaking it on more than one occasion. When pulled along side the boat, it was then we realized the true size of this monster. Once subdued, it was dragged aboard by Guide Daniel Fagan & his friend Mark.
