Plastic bags, candy wrappers, puzzle pieces, and leaves don’t usually top the list of materials used to create the fancy frocks we see on catwalks and red carpets. Except, that is, at the annual St. Anne’s-Belfield Wearable Arts Runway Show, where upper-school students like Annie Yuan (left) repurposed and recycled existing materials to create the one-of-a-kind garments that were on display Saturday, January 20, during two shows. Greek mythology was the theme for this year’s event, which featured the work of more than 20 student-designers, as well as performances from St. Anne’s-Belfield musicians.

Free news is good news!
Nearly $1 million a year goes into the work you’re reading—covering local government, spotlighting the arts, and telling the stories no one else does. If you value that, help fund it for $10 a month (or whatever tax-deductible gift you can afford). Save the free word.
