Just because you paint a calaca face or throw one on a dress… it does not make it a walking altar.. you might as well go to hot topic, at least the mass produced stuff is a bit more interesting in design.

Better late than never…thanks for sharing. If it wasn’t for you i would of never gotten to see what a awesome show it was.
Definitely not “dead” but very “alive”
Just love the creativity and imagination that they put into this.
Congratulations to all the artists.

lol the fashion show is ALWAYS packed with people pushing and stepping on each other to get a good view of the show. I suck that I missed out on such beautiful pieces this year. Thank you for posting the pics and giving your commentary. I know the hard work that goes into post like this one. My main suggestion would be to put in bleachers or something so everyone can fit and not trample each other.

Great post! I too liked the corn husk wings. Reminds me of the night of the radishes!
