Is it art?. World of WearableArt Awards
Today's homepage celebrates ‘wearable art’, which blurs genres and has passionate devotees. Curious? Well, check out the World of WearableArt (WOW), which is WOW-ing (sorry) fashion and art fans with its Awards Show in New Zealand right now. The competition runs until 16 October and features work by global designers, artists and costumiers - it’s New Zealand’s largest theatrical production. The competition is just part of the theatrical event, though - there are dancers, musicians and high-wire acts, too.
