Invitation to Linger: Where art meets fashion

One of our biggest inspirations is seeing amazingly creative people come together in collaboration and this show looks to be amazing! Let’s learn about Invitation to Linger featuring a star-studded cast of Denver creatives!

Invitation to Linger shows at D’art Gallery, located at 900 Santa Fe Drive in Denver, from January 18 to February 12, 2024.

Can you provide an overview of the concept and vision behind this fashion mixed with art show?

Invitation to Linger explores landscapes, both interior and exterior. Inspired by memories, feelings, scenes, and experiences, the artists invite you to pause and enjoy. Works in acrylic and mixed media by James-Allan Holmes, Jenny Wilson, and Karla Raines draw the viewer in while they extend the surface out. 

The artists invited two local creatives to enrich the visitor experience. The eye is delighted by art and fashion pairings featuring one-of-a-kind creations from Mona Lucero. Richly embellished jackets and headpieces intermingle with the paintings. Taste-maker Tammy Abramovitz brings an eye for stylish composition as guest curator. Tammy is known for arranging unexpected style elements in bold tableaus. 

What inspired you to curate a show that combines fashion and art?

In case you haven’t heard, I’ve officially taken the reins as the Executive Producer of CreativeMornings Denver. What started as a co-hosting and shadowing alongside the fantastic Dave Momper has now become a full-blown love affair with Denver’s creative community.

For those who know me as the founder of Fashion Denver, you know I’ve always been passionate about fostering connections within our local fashion scene. But now, I’m turning my attention to something that’s been brewing for the past year – CreativeMornings Denver. It’s not just an event; it’s a celebration of our city’s creative spirit.
