Artist Comments: "After a family tragedy, I had a potent dream which I have tried to recreate through this print series.

What is Off the Rack?
In 2008 Blue Mountain Clinic launched Off the Rack, a fashion show that stretches beyond the barriers of gender and stigma with outfits that represent a theme of healthy sexuality. How do these fashion items create dialogue about healthy sexuality? Many of the artwear items are made out of condoms and other alternative textile materials. By combining humor, art, and latex Off the Rack creates community conversation and a fashion show like no other. Local artists generously donate their creativity to making the bras, dresses, suits, ties and other ensembles that make Off the Rack possible. Each February models wearing these creations take to the runway in the Wilma Theatre for the hottest fashion show in town. Off the Rack is Blue Mountain Clinic's signature fundraiser and benefits our programs.
