. Adele Varcoe is fashion designer and also academic researcher. Her interest is the relationship between skin and the image created. We all know about this. More skin create different impression than modest attire.
Lucky for us, since skin is part of the fashion image, skin is prominently included in Varcoe work. Lots of skin. Okay, nudity. Lots of nudity.
Varcoe convert old style salon fashion show into performance art called “Imagining Chanel.” The announcer very seriously describe each garment as the models walks around the room full of people. Except there is no garments. All the models are naked. Coco Chanel herself is in audience of 2014 show.
In tradition of fashion shows, designer appear on stage at end. Varcoe took her bow in the 2014 show completely naked! (Picture below, far right.)
