MARGATE'S FIRST BEAUX ARTS BALL - HAROLD OFFEH.

We love this video! Thank you Harold!
We were chuffed to see it because when we proposed our Spark Plugs project for the Crafts Council, Clothes as Architecture, one of our inspirations was William Van Allen's costume of his Crysler Building for the Beaux Arts Ball in New York 1931. We loved the way he was so proud of his building.Well Harold Offeh hosted his own version- Margate's First Beaux Arts Ball, for 'Dead Season - Live Art' in Margate in March. We hope it can be part of our show. Why not host one in your city/ town/ village?
Brilliant!
