Serial Cultura Group Show at Silverman Gallery

silverman_trunk_show_5_13_10

A trunk show featuring local designers always catches our eye, but one featuring labels who show only a few times a year turns us into serious gawkers. Hence our laser-like focus on this Thursday’s trunk show at Silverman Gallery. Organized by Serial Cultura’s Jennings, the show features the wonderfully graphic work of Micaela Greg, jewelry by Austin-based Crumley, new works by Stars + Ravens and, of course, Jennings’ own work.

Along with discounts on merch, reason enough to stop by awaits in a limited edition capsule collection from Stars + Ravens designer Sarah Borusso. We hear the small collection of one-of-a-kind dresses grew out of her experiments with a single dress and its transformation over time. Click the flyer for more on the participating designers.
