Fashion is a seductive powerhouse in contemporary culture, worthy of
celebration and critique.
From the earliest days of civilization to the present moment, we've been
obsessed by decorative creations to adorn and define our beings. Madly
inspired garments, bravura sketches, elaborately finished works, and
experimental art in all media including video and installation will be
accepted for judging to showcase the edge where adornment meets art.

Juror: Claudia Grau, LA based artist and fashion designer known for her
whacky imagination and authentic style.

A catalog of accepted works will accompany this exhibition.
