Items relating to the Bazaar (Summer 2003-2004) fashion collection by Laurie Foon and the Summer 2003-2004 fashion collection by Starfish

Items relating to the creation, marketing and distribution/sale of the fashion collections. The following text is drawn from items in the file: Bazaar collates the eclectic beauty, flamboyance and wealth of old Arabic culture.  We have recreated the familiar silhouette of Arabian fairy tales.  Feminine fluid fabrics such as satin and silk that billow in the winds are contrasted with the more uniform-like pieces of the partisan or desert traveller.  The underlying feature of slashed and stitched pieces hints at the form of mosaic art.  Brilliant bright satins lift cottons and silks that have been worn down and aged by months in the desert. Shameless wealth adorns the cloth in the form of beads, jewels and golden thread. The collection includes: Ghazan Halta and Bomber and Jacket, Sultan Bomber and Pant, Sahara Shirt and Shirt Frock and Pant and Boilersuit, Partisan Asymmetrical Top, Partisan Skirt and Pant, Marrakech Boob Tube and Top and Skirt and Frock, Bedouin Halta and Halta Frock and Culotte, Arabian Kurta and Skirt, Shiraz Halta and Jacket, Snakecharmer Bomber and Pant, Babylon Singlet, Cairo Singlet, Mecca Singlet, Butterfly Halta, Persian Silk Halta, Harem Halta and Frock and Pant, Kasbah Frock and Skirt, Mosque Lace Top and Frock, Tassle Tee, Calligraphy Tee, Sahara Tee and Oil Slick Tee.
