Fashion Show (different type of "bird") 8 pics

The Rhode Island School of Design apparell dept. is respected and world renowned. Students are watched closely by all the big design firms.. who send scouts to the annual collection, which since 1993 has been held at my theatre.

Three days of lighting, tech, video and supermodels....

It's a tough job but somone has to do it.

If the pics look all "Jaggy" click them for Better SMALLER images Yes.. the forum is acutually resizing some to be LARGER... I can't win

wow, CDS

The one dressed as a peacock is the one for you. A bird for a birder (I see you took a close-up of her "feathers" )

The last pic is plain cool.

Great work CDS.... as always!

Thanks,

Yeah the Peacock is funny.. there are more of her in my gallery.. the tail feathers were on a draw string that raised and lowered the whole "fan" of feathers

The fashion show is made up of all differeing levels of students from first year to Senior thesis.

The first year students have an assignment where they must design articles that meet some specific requirements.. the most important being that they CAN NOT use any common materials.

We've had designs made from CDs, rubber bands, matchbooks, coffee filters, bones, fish scales, and yes.. feathers.

I like the outfit in the 2nd, 3rd, & 4th. But that model needs to eat something. The peacock is just to funny!!! Looks like something that singer Bjork would wear.

I love shot's 3 & 4. Great shots!!

Are you telling me those are real birds? Now that's cruel !

Very nice images. I have to ask though.... what in gods creation is that one that is third from last. Looks like a bad case of mould.
