What is Avant-Garde? (Source: Wikipedia)
Avant-garde (French pronunciation: [avɑ̃ɡaʁd]) means “advance guard” or “vanguard”.[1] The term is used in English as a noun or adjective to refer to people or works that are experimental or innovative, particularly with respect to art, culture, and politics.
Avant-garde represents a pushing of the boundaries of what is accepted as the norm or the status quo, primarily in the cultural realm. The notion of the existence of the avant-garde is considered by some to be a hallmark of modernism, as distinct from postmodernism. Many artists have aligned themselves with the avant-garde movement and still continue to do so, tracing a history from Dada through the Situationists to postmodern artists such as the Language poets around 1981.[2]

ABOUT THE EVENT:
Since 2006, AIGA San Francisco has organized San Francisco Design Week as a way to reach out to a diverse community of over 20,000 Bay Area design professionals as well as local businesses, non-profits, entrepreneurs, students, the design-savvy public, tourists, and more. AIGA SF will be partnering with the San Francisco chapters of the American Institute of Architects (AIA), the Industrial Designers Society of America (IDSA), the Interaction Design Association (IxDA), the Society for Environmental Graphic Design (SEGD), and Adobe Systems, to sponsor a full week of events highlighting the diversity and professionalism of the design community around the bay. Our goal is to raise public awareness of the impact that all design—graphic, product, interior, fashion, architecture, advertising, et cetera—has in the San Francisco Bay Area.
AIGA, the professional association for design, is the oldest and largest membership association for professionals engaged in the discipline, practice and culture of designing. Founded as the American Institute of Graphic Arts in 1914 as a small, exclusive club, AIGA now represents more than 20,000 designers through national activities and local programs developed by more than 66 chapters and more than 200 student groups.
The San Francisco chapter of AIGA is one of the largest and most active in the country. Run by an Executive Director and a volunteer board of directors, the organization celebrates design and provides unparalleled opportunities for networking within the local design community and a variety of resources to advance professionalism and broaden knowledge. AIGA SF’s events stimulate discourse and enrich the collective experience of design.

NOW CASTING “FASHION DESIGNER PROJECT”
Major Cable Network is currently casting an innovative, charismatic, credible/established, edgy FASHION DESIGNER to anchor their own series.
Must be edgy, hip, possibly Avant Garde, capable of “Fantasy” type looks. Having a background in Costume Design is OK, but MUST currently be grounded in Fashion.
The right designer could design a Couture look for the Runway to designing outfits for the next Katy Perry or Lady Gaga Tour. Ideally they would have a full Team in place, but open if they don’t. This designer and his/her team must be established, so right out of design school or too up and coming doesn’t work. Must have the credibility to star in their own show!!!
Please feel free to blast this out to anyone you think would be perfect for this project or to anyone who may have some leads. Obviously this is an amazing platform for the designer/design house to showcase themselves and their work in a positive light. This is NOT a competition show, It is a docu-series that will be geared around the chosen designer,their staff and their designs…think the “Rachel Zoe but for an innovative Fashion Designer”

Thanks!
