Harvey’s dresses are so inventive. Let’s hope he inspires others to create recycled couture. Check out the newspaper gowns by Elena Gregusova, who has won Vancouver’s Wearable Art Awards over the last several years: http://bit.ly/14Bk0u
Uh… Zoolander? Except that it was a JOKE.
Beautiful! How about accessibility? Consider dealing with issues of poverty directly; set up an apprenticeship program. 10 to 20 students form inner city, no-chance environments to learn a set of marketable skills & a trade! Jamie Oliver’s 15-program is a good example: http://www.fifteen.net/mission/Pages/default.aspx
Why in the world does poverty have to do with this. Poverty is a state of mind that can be eradicated if people start taking responsibility for their own well-being instead of waiting for hand-outs. The war on poverty has been going on for almost 50 years and instead of less we see more…enough already with the non-sense!
