In celebration of the debut of Alice In Wonderland Blu-ray and DVD on June 1, 2010, Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment, in partnership with Disney Consumer Products, are unveiling a one-of-a-kind Alice In Wonderland Exhibition (at the FIDM Museum and Galleries) FREE to the public, beginning May 27Th and running through September 30Th.
Collen Atwood's Original Red Queen illustration for Alice In WonderlandIn lieu of this fabulous Exhibition, I was invited to lead a very special FIDM SuperLab Project where FIDM Fashion Designers were asked to design and produce Red Carpet-worthy gowns and/or dresses inspired by six iconic characters in the film. Yes, I was asked to be the Mentor and Inspiration Mad Hatter for this incredible project! Most of these FIDM designers have been my students and I can't wait to see what they created!
Illustration DIVA: Colleen Atwood's illustration of The Red Queen, Alice In WonderlandThe Alice In Wonderland characters we chose to "inspire" the designers include: Alice (of course), The Red Queen, The Cheshire Cat, The White Rabbit, Tweedledee and Tweedledum and The Mad Matter (Johnny Depp's fabulous character).
