I’m so excited to announce that a dance team I designed costumes for is having their performance this weekend, and I made their costumes! They are having 4 shows in total on 12/8 and 12/9. I will be at the 7pm show on 12/8, if you are in Tokyo and interested in coming out, please feel free to contact me at vivatveritasshop@gmail.com! The ticket costs $3,500 at the door.
It was a lot of work bringing the design that the dancer had in mind into real life, due to her need for movability and comfort, and its stage presence. The pictures above only shows the white dress, but I made some with an overskirt in red, purple and navy on top of the dresses. I made seven overskirts in one day, and didn’t have time to photograph them:(
Below is excerpt from Asahi Art Square, where the performance is.
とあるところに一つの机と二つの椅子。 向き合ってる二人。 一方はディーバで、一方はエゴというらしい。 ディーバ『さー、どこから始めようか。』 エゴ『前に一歩踏み出したい、そんな気がする。』 ディーバ『こんなのはどうだい?』 こうやって二人の会話は始まった。。。
