FELT fashion- Wearable Art Show
Fashion Show Gala September 27, 2013



felt :: feutre is curating a juried Felt Fashion & Wearable Art Show featuring the best and most exciting work being created by Canadian fibre artists and fashion designers working with felt.

We are looking for fantastic wearable art and fashion design that pushes the boundaries of what can be made and worn with felt.

Bold, dramatic, enchanting, exciting, exotic, elegant.

Headwear, accessories, garments, footwear.

We want to show where Canadian fibre artists can take this medium in the realm of fashion.

We are looking for work that represents the highest qualities of technical execution, and artistic /design sensibilities.

Wearable art pieces can be created using mixed media techniques but must have a strong and recognizable traditionally (wet) felted or needlefelted component.

This work will remain on display after the live show for the duration on the felt :: feutre event.
