The Art of Food (2014) from Golden Hour Moving Pictures on Vimeo.
Each artist created a head to toe look for their character. Kelly and I chose "The Cheshire Cat." We created a pieced sweater coat, t-shirt and skirt from pieces collected at Goodwill. Kelly created all of the splendid fiber jewelry. Our muse for our character was Iris Apfel...an extremely cool fashionista, who is always dripping in pattern, bangles and beads.
Our model, Cate Dean, was absolutely perfect for the role!
The show began with a troubadour leading the whacky cast of characters into the gallery, strumming and singer a wonderful song. Most of the models were either actors or dancers, They were in character all throughout the evening.
It was a delicious mix of color, pattern, music, aromas and playfulness. The runway was the tea party table.
Kelly and I...and my daughter Kenzie, also created 6 of the chairs surrounding the table. We used a very old, very cool "Alice in Wonderland" book for the central imagery on the chairs.
The experience was just spectacular! Loved every minute!!
