After attending the first under construction iron designer face off, I promptly staggered back to my house and began a 4 month long, Wagnerian episode of weeping and smacking my head repeatedly against as many hard objects as I could find in the vicinity. I had discovered how horribly unfashionable I was!!! It was VERY painful! After many tears and having significantly altered the shape of my cranium, I finally pulled myself out of this Old Navy and Gap induced whining fit. I then proceeded to track down several of the angelic sewing machine chics from the event. Eventually after countless hours of groveling and a few threats of suicide, I persuaded one of them to do me the great honor of allowing me wear some of her creations! Joyfully, my attire now consists of at least 98.765% handmade, one of a kind apparel designed by devastatingly dreamy girls that I know myself. WOW, I’m so lucky!!!! If you attend this 2nd installment of under construction, you as well may have a life changing experience that could transform even the most monstrously unchic, into dazzling archetypes of what it means to be dapper, dashing, chichi, classy or even snazzy. Also, the music will ROCK!! - groundchuck , posted 04/19/05 |

I had so much fun at the under construction event last year. It was truly a ball. You must track down miss velvet cream and learn all about the next one. - Alisha , posted 04/14/05 |

The first under construction event in berkland helped change my perspective on what art and fashion and a production could be. It was a way to see a collaboration in action from design to production to end product. The collective energy put into the event spiked and ebbed into the art piece. It was beautiful. I feel the lessons learned from that first production will only add to the beauty and FIRE for this upcoming event, under construction II. Please join us. - ty , posted 04/13/05 |

the first Under Construction was a whirlwind of good times... but the live design was a rush! I had two stunning models, yards and yards of gorgeous pink satin flying through the air, mad music, a beer and a glass of champagne on either side of the serger! Every once in a while I caught a glimpse of the crowd, jaws on the floor in amazement. Who ever knew watching designers at work could be so intriguing? :) I came all the way from Boston for it and it was well worth the trip! The designers were all REAL, sweet and immensely talented... I bought a signature piece from Letty that makes me feel like a work of art when I wear it! And Estar & Miss Velvet Cream & Tinc & Ana Konda .... oh I can't wait to see the new designers... just tingles of anticipation for Under Construction II on 4/23... shop, play, create LIVE amid beautiful people in a space with such an amazing vibe! here's the post - but really you should do a search for it on tribe so you can see the flyer too...it's hot! :)m Date & Time: 2005-04-23 6:00 PM Location: the can on its side under construction project LIVE "iron designer" clothing construction event featuring local designers estar dominiwear miranda caroligne mystery designer LIVE hair creations from madusalon 300 page @ divisadero LIVE beauty makeup from oui three queens south van ness @ 15th LIVE body glittering from mikas mogo LIVE electronic performances from groundchuck twittering machine LIVE fashion house djs jonathan + savanna LIVE visual remix and reconstruction from dr friendly april 23 2005 6pm - midnight in the tin can 590 shotwell @20th in the mission open wine bar door sliding scale $10-20 $5 trunk show access only 6-8pm performance 9-11pm fashion show finale 11:30pm ONE NIGHT ONLY on-site boutique featuring designers ana konda, estar, dominiwear, miranda caroligne, miss velvet cream, tinc, wondercloset. accessories from antoinette celes and mogo FABRIC SPONSOR for under construction project is discount fabrics www.discountfabrics-sf.com press contacts and more information please visit the website www.underconstructionproject.net flyer photos and design miss velvet cream flyer back image: angela scrivani (angela@medicinefilms.org) - miranda caroligne , posted 04/13/05 |
