¡VIVA BAILE!
SEPTEMBER 15 – OCTOBER 15
¡Ole! Tap tap tapping into the vitality of Latin rhythms. Nordstom and fashion designer Robert Rodriguez joined up to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month with the “Art of Dance” student design competition. The prize? Seeing one’s work silk-screened onto a limited-edition tunic tank and a $5000 scholarship for continuing arts education. In addition, Nordstrom made a generous donation to the Association of Hispanic Arts.
The three talented winners – Lorna Mahler, Elly Choi and Vanessa De La Torre – were selected by a panel of judges that included Project Runway’s Tim Gunn, illustrator Ruben Toledo and designer Isabel Toledo.
De La Torre believes the common thread of movement “cuts across all ethnic and geopolitical boundaries.” And from lyric to whimsical, their styles embody the spirit of dances as diverse as tango, salsa, and fiery flamenco.
Celebrate the richness of Hispanic culture with wearable artwork that is both fashionable and exclusive as it is inspiring.
