Personal Adornment Show-Katelin Bolig
I attended the runway show at the Haas Gallery. Walking in I wasn't quite sure what to expect. When the models started coming out I realized this was not supposed to look like a normal outfit, but wearable art. There were a lot of crazy outfits. The dress above was on of my favorites. I liked it because it was so realistic from far away. However, when she came closer you could clearly see what the dress was made out of. I thought it looked like one of my little sisters Easter dresses.
I definitely liked these outfits a lot. With having three separate pieces it really showed the concept. They all looked great, and the acting was also really good. The dumbbell pulling back her leg was a good addition. I couldn't figure out why she was crawling on the floor at first, and the strongest part of the display I believe was being strangled by the pill bottles. I believe that could have even been a piece on it's own.
This piece was really unique. I thought it was very elegant, like an evening gown. The color choice was really eye catching. I have yet to figure out what the black parts are actually made of, but I like the volume and density of it on the dress. It makes the dress stand out, and the matching hairpiece looked good too. The entire show was put together really well, and all of the performers did a great job making their wearable art. Some of the other ones that stick out in my mind are the Q-tip dress, the tan/brown dress made to look like a tree, and of course the octopus one was unexpected.
