About

Costumes:

  The headpieces, dresses, gloves and boots are all executed with a similar aesthetic in mind, one of using the most common, inexpensive and even discarded materials and transforming them into an object with an entirely different life of its own.  In keeping with Mrs. Vera’s ever-changing yet always recognizable appearance, everything is indeed wearable, though sightings of any individual element are limited to a few times at most.  There are a few older pieces included with the most recent works though most date from the last year or so.  Color, texture, recycling and strangeness are the primary guiding principles towards their completion.
