Fashion's Night Out!
I created the Anna Wintour and Grace Coddington dolls to celebrate Fashion's Night Out, an evening started by Anna Wintour to jumpstart the fashion economy. They were commissioned by BARNEYS NEW YORK, one of the most creative retailers in the business today. They are being auctioned at Charity Buzz.com for the New York AIDS fund.
It's been a whirlwind experience that up until now has been pretty hush hush-- I'm been hard at work making over sixty dolls for multiple stores wearing looks from such collections as Lanvin, Alaia, Balenciaga, Dries Van Noten, and Proenza Schouler. 36 of them will be on the fourth floor of the Madison Avenue flagship on Sept 10th. Multiple designers will be making appearances to sign their dolls, and I will be there all night, from 6-11! Come, drink, and buy a doll. More pictures of these lovely ladies will be appearing very soon! Here are some great writeups about the ladies, and please read the interview I did for the Barneys Blog --
