Balloon couture is not a new art. It marries the tactile with the aesthetic. As with the culinary arts, balloon art is sadly ephemeral. These sometimes painstaking pieces can take 20 or more hours to complete and last only as long. Like a delicate flower, they slowly wilt. But the memory of their beauty is enduring. Cotton, Silk, wool, and even cashmere are simply natural products used for the productions of clothing. The same can be said for latex balloons. Balloon dresses are the ultimate test of a true balloon artist. Manipulating the slender tubes into a "fabric" without rupturing the delicate membrane takes hours. The results... breathtaking! Designs can range from truly elegant and classic period costumes to the most daring and sexy club couture. Innovative designers from all over the world have been creating balloon fashions for industry runway shows for years. Only in the past few years have balloon fashion artists begun to delve into the mainstream art world. As one of the industry's most influential designers, Marie Dadow has appeared on internationally syndicated television programs and magazines sharing her passion for her art. She has written articles for the industry's foremost membership site and has created instructional DVD's. She was the first to receive the coveted Balloon Excellence Award given by Ralph Dewey, the industry's leading innovator. Marie and Carmen are taking this culmination of fashion and art on a journey to events throughout the US and internationally.
