Workshop
How to Dress for Your Shape: Clothing for Real Women
Saturday, November 9, 10 am - 4 pm; Lightcatcher studio
"I believe there should be something magical and unique about what is worn each day and I want to share this concept of clothing with others." Anita Luvera Mayer. Participants in this interactive workshop with designer and fiber artist Anita Luvera Mayer will have the opportunity to try on a wide range of clothing styles that are designed for women of all ages and body sizes, with garment patterns provided. Anita will discuss style and comfort, lining methods, making garments fit, and surface embellishments.
