The Weekend in Wax

This weekend there's a fashion wax museum event at Trocaderos, and I've noticed that it's getting some attention. If you're interested in attending the affair, I direct you to the Still In Style site. You'll be pleased to know some fine designers are involved--including a couple locals familiar to us from Voltage (Hyper Lush and Kimberly Jurek). I do admit that I have my suspicions about this event ... Will the "creep factor" shoot through the roof (as in the photo above)? But I'm trying my best to suspend judgment, dear friends. My promise to you: Photos. Reportage. Coming. Sometime next week.

Update! Promise Broken! Unfortunately, the live "wax models" were fashionably late about getting dressed that evening. And a close friend I had not seen in ages just happened to be rolling through town. But alas, I saw some lovely set designs:
