Monstrosities - Pteranodon

Monstrosities - Pteranodon by Sarah Ivancic
Monstrosities - Pteranodon
Artist Sarah Ivancic
Sarah Ivancic's Monstrosities is inspired by a comment made in jest that a fashion collection be based upon dinosaurs. The concept took hold, presenting Ivancic with a motivating design challenge. The costumes enabled an exploration of textile techniques, such as surface design to create dinosaur inspired prints and textures. The conceptual challenge for Ivancic was to develop characters that represent ideas around feminine strength and power, through costume and clothing. What emerges is the flirtatious, lady dinosaur both terrifying and tantalizing.

More about RACK: An Experimental Fashion Event 2011

RACK presents bodies of work pushing the boundaries of fashion and costume with performance and sound. Participating artists explore the relationship between culture and the body through originally designed and constructed garments. The annual Experimental Fashion Event is a capstone for students in MICA’s experimental fashion concentration within the Fiber Department. Members of the Multi Media Event class work together for two semesters designing and crafting their own body of work, while working collaboratively to produce a live show. Students present their innovative fashion and costume designs through visually stunning live performances and projected video. The evening will involve more than 150 people—from designers to performers, roving costumed characters, and musicians.
