‘AccesSoirée’, a party for our supporters and friends.
A black and white attired ball where you brighten up your get-ups with
a single, smashing salvaged or vintage accessory. So come with black
and white as the canvas for your very finest or funkiest vintage
accessory; surprise us with an original re-purposed piece of
decorative decadence and the best adornment of the night wins a posh
potable prize.
This unique event is a celebration of style and sensibility, fashion
and frugality, glamour and consciousness. Fabulously contradictory and
really just another excuse to throw a party, guests will be treated
to a guilt free night of class and decadence. Upping the ante in
ethical fashion the face of the project, Sheena Matheiken, will be
dressed head to toe by the rapidly rising star and young designer
Raffaele Ascione. Ascione shows us how to do couture with a conscience
like no other.
Hosted at Blowup Location in Williamsburg on Saturday, November 7th,
with a private rooftop view of Manhattan and DJ sets by fashion
darling Judi Rosen, The Juan MacLean’s Nancy Wang, Holy Ghost and
more from New York’s finest DFA crew.
This is a strictly private party with a limited amount of tickets
available for fans at uniformprojectparty.eventbrite.com
