Bootleg Costumes Hastings' first bespoke costume designer presented their first catwalk collection “In Your Element” at FRONT ROW this year.
In Your Element is a collection of wearable art and high-brow glamour. Each individual costume is an external projection of the model’s ‘elemental being’, inspired by mythical creatures’ derived from Chinese astrological divination, Egyptian pantheon of gods/goddesses and Hindu Upanishshads.
AFRORETRO is headed by
British-Ugandan sisters Anna Nabirye & Lilly Babirye. They fuse both their
homelands into their fashion, accessories and jewellery. Many of their
collection is upcycled - foraging for unloved and forgotten garments and
fabrics they breathe new life into them with just a tad of Uganglish flavour.
Each year at FRONT ROW the gorgeous Crystal Hart and her glittering entourage of Terrence Higgins Trust supporters raise awareness for World Aids Day on 1st December, National Testing week as well as money for the important local work of the charity.
The "Spice Girls" as part of their Gay Icon inspired performance.
Monday Butoh is a Hastings
& St.Leonards based dance group led by Yumino Seki (www.yuminoseki.webs.com).
The group's performance was nothing short of mesmerizing.
Her collection was titled "Stalingrad". www.freyavonbulow.com
And last but not least an electric performance by the magnificent PUSSY CHÉRIE
This Electro/Techno/Rock/French band from
Paris stands out and gives us an
atypical show of 3 characters on stage:
Funérailles : songwriter, samples,
vocals.
Gringo : composer, synth,
machines, vocals.
Simone
de Bavoir : writer, guitar, bass, vocals.
Pussy Chérie, a cocktail made of
energy, erotism and unknown for a good dose of electronic sweat.
