"DRESS GO-AROUND" FILM / IVANA HELSINKI




This is a little film by my friend, Paola, the brilliant blonde magician behind the Finnish design line, Ivana Helsinki. It's called "Dress-Go-Around" and it introduces her project of the same name where 10 girls are given Ivana Helsinki dresses, we document our time in them, and then pass the "energized" garment on to a new girl of our choice, the idea being that the dress is charged with our lives, dreams, and energies. Alchemy!

We made the film in Central Park on a bitter cold day. But the best part, besides playing dress up with Paola, an adventure I can never say no to, was slipping on the ice with Heather and Erika from Au Revoir Simone.

Thanks to everyone who came to hear me play at the "Dress Go Around" opening at Moehler Snow! xox
