'Fashion as Art' - The Prequel

These are some of the dresses that will be featured in the Arts Council of Wyoming County's 40th anniversary celebratory events as a part of my internship [thanks of course to Jessie Barth & Professor Dudkowski]! So excited & pleased with how these came out, a special thanks to the models (check Twitter for more @gccstyle) & those whom helped out with pictures - huge progress towards amazing events in Western NY (Summer/Fall 2015 ACWC)! The dresses are going to be featured in either the Art exhibit, beginning August 2015 or the finale & fashion show in September and will be available through a charity auction as the events come to an end. Enjoy these awesome looks and stay tuned for more, we are working so hard to make these events spectacular for all in the area.

The Row: Fashion as told by the Olsen Twins


•The Row's show was held on the 35th floor of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe's masterpiece, the Seagram Building {Est.1958}.
•Midtown - floor-to-ceiling windows, tranquility, tailoring, Moroccan, leather, seventies, business feel & very "NY-like"
• black and white
•coincidence or not ?!: The Olsens have just signed a lease on an East 71st Street town house. 
•1st Manhattan flagship to open before end of 2015 - these clothes will be in stores.
•Superfine materials, customer remains "gliding through life, wearing skimmy Moroccan slippers over sheer black hose, and clutching a croc gym bag to her chest."
•Seething with luxury...almost unintentionally 
•"Wide leather belts - dually-knotted in the back of the garment which helped to add shape to the silhouettes of kimono-esque jackets (**the butterscotch-crocodile version has been spotted all over social media...guilty mine included- 1st photo of the post)
xoxo enjoy these gorgeous pieces
