For those of you lucky enough to be in NOLA this weekend, please stop by Du Mois Gallery (4921 Ferret Street) for a fashion as art exhibition put together by Christy Lorio of the Slow Southern Style Blog (while you're at it, subscribe to this blog if you don't already). A brief synopsis:
"Style is what comes from a careful culmination of exquisite, highly personal objects of adornment. From a simple bow tie to a handmade necklace finishing touches add personality and depth to our outward appearance. Clothing functions as our own wearable art that we can take with us wherever we go and is our most accessible way to express ourselves. Louisiana clothing and accessory designers Alicia Zenobia, Ben Azevedo, Lacey Dupre, and Kaci Thomassie showcase their unique designs elevating everyday wear into artful expressions of personal style." |
If you're in the city then take the opportunity to stop by what promises to be a unique look at some of New Orleans' most talented fashion artists.
