The World of WearableArt, or WOW, is an extravagant fusion of art, design, fashion, dance, theatre and music that has grown into an international phenomenon. It draws an annual audience of over 50, 000 people to the Awards Show in Wellington, New Zealand, and has generated a number of significant travelling exhibitions. Behind the success of this event are the remarkable garments, and this book is a tribute to the inspired genius of the designers who create them. Writer Naomi Arnold has interviewed 30 of the best wearable art designers from around the world, exploring their stories, motivations and inspirations. Lavishly illustrated, this book provides a fascinating insight into the creative heart of WOW.
