Pin Up Girls: Rosenmunns + Light Vision Pin Party at Anica

The folks behind the interest-piquing party invites shown here announcing the upcoming RosenMunns + Light Vision Pin Party want you and your indie fashion-minded friends to do two very simple things this Friday night. One, get some pins (a.k.a. buttons). If you’re like us, you’ve got a small pin army chilling, quite without purpose, on, in or around your nightstand-bookshelf-jewelry box-dresser drawers. And guess what? They’d really like a way cooler venue.

Which brings us to the second thing you should do Friday night. Head to Anica, where the minds behind local label RosenMunns and online indie retailer Light Vision will be waiting. There, they will ask you to ever-so-gingerly affix your pins to an oversized, sweatshirt-like garment designed, dyed and sewn by RosenMunns and worn by a live model for the soiree. Photographer Bryan Krueger will document the garment’s evolution from relatively blank canvas to pin-addled wearable art. Punk tunes and good ‘ole rock ‘n roll will fill the air. You will leave pinless, but happy. And after the party, Light Vision will sell the evening’s experimental garment in its online store.

As Light Vision’s Krista Bachmeier tells us, “It’s a collaboration, fashion, art event party, and the concept of it is really simple. We just want people to show up, pins in hand, and put them on the model. We are trusting the audience to supply us with pins and help with the creation of this garment.”

Talk about getting stuck on indie fashion…
