Hadley

Hadley is a friend of mine from Kansas that persued fashion at Parsons in Paris.. She has recently moved back to Kansas City where we met and is working on just lovely things.  Here are some of her pieces from her 2010 and 2011 collections featured on NOT JUST A LABEL.

"Hadley Johnson was named Parsons Paris 2010 Designer of the Year for her debut collection, "Till Death Do Us Part". Conceptually grounded by a Fine Arts BFA in 2001, Johnson approaches fashion as a discipline. Her generative studio practice has a choreographic and architectural rhythm. Johnson's projects with experimental and formal dance groups in New York include costuming a 2011 performance in collaboration with composer Philip Glass. Hadley Johnson's most recent costuming role was funded by the Andy Warhol Foundation of the Visual Arts.  She is currently in development of a clandestine project with international art doyenne, Peregrine Honig."
