We had a book release party at MH Art & Framing Gallery 9 W. 20th St NYC on Jan 23, 2010. Here are pics from the event if you link on the title of show or the blog, you will see the entire album from the show. The show runs through til Feb 27th. It is titled:“Vintage Fashion Accessories: Celebrating the Art of Vintage Fashion”
features vintage fashions from Incogneeto in Somerville, NJ and fashion photography by Jimmy Lin and Marguerite Ruscito for the book, "Vintage Fashion Accessories". A book signing with author, Stacy LoAlbo, was held during the night of the Opening Reception (January 23rd 6-9pm with the book signing from 6-7pm). Special vintage items will be offered for sale at the gallery during the month long event.
The combination of framed fashion objects, fashion photography and the book, “Vintage Fashion Accessories”, demonstrates the broad brush of creative design and artistry with fashion in mind. MH Art and Framing Gallery in NYC will persuade you with that contention in the exhibit, “Vintage Fashion Accessories: Celebrating the Art of Vintage Fashion”
Other than the “fashion statement”, there are the historical and cultural associations with vintage clothing and accessories. Stacy LoAlbo, “The Vintage Maven”, has given us a lesson on that sentiment in her new book, “Vintage Fashion Accessories”. The pages are filled with fashion photography of dresses, hats and accessories with artfully cropped images of product shots by Jimmy Lin and Marguerite Ruscito. A book more for the “fashionista” or vintage collector, it easily crosses the boundary of art as it emphasizes the beauty, uniqueness and sensuality of these vintage items spanning an era that starts in the stylish early 1900’s to the plaids of the 70’s.
Photographer, Jimmy Lin, will display fashion and product shots that are featured in the book as well as additional imagery from his repertoire. Marguerite Ruscito completes the photography exhibit with her fashion photography. All accessories and clothing photographed for the book are from Stacy LoAlbo's vintage clothing boutique “Incogneeto” in Somerville, NJ.
MH Art & Framing Gallery will also be featuring vintage items from the boutique to demonstrate object framing. The vintage items will be encased in a frame, hinged at the face, subsequently creating a wall mounted jewelry box.
Incogneeto will also have vintage fashion accessories for purchase at the gallery until Feb 27th, 2010.
All photography is for sale.
The show runs from JANUARY 16th - FEBRUARY 27th
