Slow Clothes: The Art of Fashion by Wearable Arts Vancouver

Writing and photos by Dianna Drahanchuk

It was a smoky but beautiful day for 27 artists to show their exquisite stuff to a rapt audience at the Slow Clothes: the Art of Fashion show put on by Wearable Arts Vancouver





Alice Philips felted the astounding geometric black and white patterned coat and hat and the brilliant orange shawl and hat http://www.alicephilips.com/home.htm. She sourced and dyed wool from New Zealand. The Japanese motif handbag is by Carolyn Bruce.



Another texted design is this flowing topper by Fariba Mirzai, “clothing from nature to fit your soul” https://annihunt.com. The hand-made lace back spells out a poem by the Persian calligraphy by poet Rumi.
