Fashion and Fun

Kansas City's fashionistas were out in force on Saturday night for Party Arty | Bloch on the Rocks. The annual bash is hosted by the Young Friends of Art as a fundraiser for the Museum.

The evening was very stylish with a red carpet, a cool fashion show and the sleek Hall's VIP Lounge sponsored by Hall's department store.

The fashion show was hosted by the International Interior Design Association Mid America Chapter. The designs were one of a kind haute couture creations made of various textile materials including carpet, tile, wall coverings and more. The materials were donated by local vendors.

A rockin' peformance by the Nadas got the dance floor hopping. Playboy magazine called them the "best college band you've never heard of" and they certainly earned that honor. They kept the crowd energized with their upbeat songs, strong guitar and jamming bass lines. My favorite part was their "snipit montage" which included songs by Michael Jackson and AC/DC.
