Cambodia Bound and Final Farewell Fashion Show

Soooo alot has been going on in my life regarding my adventure in fashion. I got a job working for KeoK'jay, a Cambodian fair trade fashion company, and I move January 17th. Whoa. That's in less than 2 weeks. I am so incredibly excited for this opportunity to assist the creative director in various part of the business, including teaching HIV positive women how to make the garments.

And of course what better way to leave the country and bid my loved ones adieu for who knows how long haha..than a fashion show!

Inspired by Cambodian monks, rice paddies, the Buddhist mentality to use everything at hand.

The show is a art performance conveying the injustice facing many women in poverty, who are forced into prostitution.  HIV also forces women to do terrible things just to get by.
