Franklin Arts Festival night of Couture
Pukekohe
A night of Couture - part of the 21st birthday celebration of Franklin Arts Festival
The Franklin Arts Festval turns 21 this year. It has been decided to celebrate this milestone and to further enhance the annual art festival week with a large scale glamorous event of high octane fabulousness. Nothing is more fantastic and mesmerising that a clever hybrid of high fashion and art.
The theme will not be 'wearable art' like we know it, where costumes and other paraphernalia are worn. The emphasis will be on avant-garde garments of a couture nature made from non traditional materials - unusual materials - without the use of a sewing machine - bold structures, constructed and shaped.
Date: 27 August
Location: Franklin:The Centre - Foyer, Massey Avenue, Pukekohe
Cost: Ticket price yet to be confirmed
Time: 6pm - 8pm
