"Jamie McCarty and the Technicolor Army" Fashion Show
Friday, July 18th at 8pm
The
roots of the fashion show began years ago while on a trip to Las
Vegas where Jamie encountered a going out of business thrift store.
There she purchased thirteen uniforms of the same style; all
together the uniforms cost her ten cents. After sitting in her
closet for over four years they are coming to life in Jamie McCarty
and the Technicolor Army. The theme of the fashion show evolved
from a digital project given to her at Parsons where she was
inspired by the Flaming Lips Yoshimi Battles the Pink
Robots. This collection showcases Jamies version of
Yoshimi and her army as they battle their way through psychedelic
outer space.
Sponsors for this event include Republic Bank & Trust, the
Kirkpatrick Family Fund, Copia on the Corridor and Gaijin
Sushi.
