On August 12, Martha’s Vineyard fashion designer Stina Sayre (www.stinasayre.com) will take the concept of the fashion runway in a new direction with a stellar fashion show, Runways Merge: a Fashion Opera Extravaganza, at the Martha’s Vineyard Airport in Edgartown, Massachusetts. The event is a dual-benefit for local performing arts company, The Yard (www.dancetheyard.org), and The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research, with net proceeds divided between the two organizations.
On the heels of the successful garden party Fashion Show last summer, Stina Sayre is preparing to take off in a new direction, figuratively, with the fashion show at the airport. She is coordinating the evening with Wendy Taucher, Artistic Director for The Yard, and no stranger to boundary-expanding performances. With the 2010 show, Ms. Sayre is looking to expand the traditional concept of the fashion show with the unorthodox location and by enveloping the crowd with opera singers’ voices.
The evening will begin with a brief cocktail party at 6:30 pm; followed by the show at 7:00 pm. For ticket information, please call the Yard at (508) 645-9665.
