Couture designer creates identities for runway show in Dunedin

NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla. — It’s got to be wearable.

Artistic.

And made from unconventional items.

We’re talking about some of the guidelines for “Wearable Art 19: Blurred” at the Dunedin Fine Art Center’s annual runway show.

Artist Vanessa Froehling is one of the designers in the Saturday, Aug. 23 show.

This year, Froehling’s theme is “Under Construction,” and she has created more than 40 pieces for the 19th annual runway show.

“I consider myself a maker of identity,” said Froehling, standing among dresses from the last two shows.

“And this is a constant reminder of where I’ve come since this last year or the different ideas I can have. It’s a constant reminder to just be authentic and stay grounded.”
