Art Basel Miami: Papusza Couture featured in Gemma Fleming's TWINS Exhibition


Those of you who will be in Miami for Basel this year, please be sure to pop by Haired at the Cream Hotel to see the debut of Gemma Fleming's TWINS. The opening reception will be on December 1st from 3-10, but the show will be up through the 4th.

This is a beautiful piece, that we shot almost exactly 2 years ago. I did the costuming for the video, using pieces from Papusza Couture's Oceania Etherea Collection, as well as select pieces from artist/designer/dear friend Mika Mae Jones. I am excited to see the project coming full circle, and finally getting the debut/exposure it deserves. There will be live models/installation for the opening, featuring and costumed in pieces from Papusza Couture's past collections. Gemma will also have a limited addition book available for sale featuring stills from TWINS.

See the teaser below and if you are going to be in Miami for Basel be sure and stop by the opening-it will be well worth your while!

Life Outside NY Part 4: San Francisco, A Mad Hatters Tea Party

Apologies for my lack in keeping my "Life Outside NY" stories up to date. My summer and fall have been filled with mayhem, which all started during my time in San Francisco, where I was for a while during the end of last Spring. Since then I have undergone many experiences and more travels which have captured a great sense of reflection in myself. I have decided that living in Southern California isn't the right move for me now, but I do plan to continue working in LA, and am seriously considering settling down for a bit in Central Cali, though I feel that my nomadic ways have not yet come to a halt, so this may not fully bloom for awhile.

Over the Spring I spent time staying and working with my dear friend Katie Burley, who is an amazing couture milliner, and was recently featured in the SF Gate and the SF Guardian Sunday Style Section. We created a small lingerie and couture millinery collection called Ligatia Curiosa and showed it at the Supperclub SF. See some photos of the show below courtesy of talented photographer Gideon Roh, and stay tuned for editorials of our collection, also shot by Gideon with muse model Magdalene Veen.

There are many more stories of adventure to be told about my times in SF, but I'll those for close friends and lucky randoms...
