Threads: Wearable Art Fashion Show was a fashion show and lecture presented at the Jersey City Museum on Sunday February 24th, 2008 focused on artists and ideas surrounding the use of technology and non-traditional materials in fashion.
Many local artists were involved, and the atmosphere was electric.
The event was free, and open to the public, drawing enough of a crowd that people were turned away at the door for fire safety concerns! The show was sponsored by _gaia studio, an organization that supports local artists, and featured 20 artists and designers.

The first half of the show began with presentations by Despina Papadopoulos, designer and director of Studio 5050 (5050ltd.com), and Nora Abousteit and Benedikta von Karaisl, founders of BurdaStyle.com, a popular Open Source sewing community featuring free tutorials and copyright-free sewing patterns.
The wearable designs ranged from tongue-in-cheek to practical, and the artist talk at the start of the show generated interesting talking points during a Q&A session.
The show was followed by a reception inside the lobby of the museum, and an after party held at Bar Majestic on Grove Street.

У меня скорее необычная история связи с магом Александром Цынь. Мою сестру бросил муж и она стала обращаться ко всем магам подряд. Денег на ветер выкинула много, я бы даже сказал очень много. Я естественно ее попрекал – говорил дура, если судьба такая так живи и радуйся что в принципе разошлись вы нормально… Она уехала в другой город учиться, а потом по окончании учебы приехала к нам в Саратов со своим новым мужем – ну это она так мне говорила, а когда они приехали на мне лица не было – это он, тот человек, зовут Вадим. Мне сказала что вот так как то сошлись… И через год я расстался со своей любовью – мы жили 10 лет совместно и это была любовь со школьной скамьи. Начал пить, гулять, очень переживал свой развод. И тут моя сестра призналась что все же ей маг помог Александр Цынь. И стала меня подталкивать к этому… Я не соглашался но все же мое желание быть с моей любимой победило и я обратился к нему. И вот к чему все это пишу – то во что я не верил никогда, отталкивал от себя МНЕ ПОМОГЛО! Теперь просто не то чтобы верю в магию а как то еще хочу чтобы какой нибудь мой знакомый захотел пообщаться с Александром… )) а вы говорите – магияяя….
