Phasion of the Era is a satiric musical theatre

inspired runway show with clothes made from non-

traditional items. The social commentary focused on

the state of theatre today and commercialism within

the entertainment industry. This event was produced

for a Broadway Cares Equity Fights Aid’s benefit

concert in February 2009.

There was no funding for this project

and the garments were designed from donated

materials including: paper plates, People magazine,

plastic rose petals, Christmas ornaments, stickers, hot

glue, paint, duct tape, glitter, sequins, cups, paper

lanterns, and many other objects lying around my

college apartment.

The runway show and performance

included music and narration of the works stylized for

each costume piece. This project is a bucket list

dream of mine. I aspire to one day create a thick

coffee table book to raise money for Broadway Cares.

Future dreams include producing a fashion show at

Lincoln Center and enlisting both famous designers

and performers to recreate these (among many)

costumes for a live event, photo shoot, and charity

auction.
