Bright Young Thing Wear-a-thon, Anne-Marie Goco
Each year for one month, over 50,000 people go out to the middle of the desert with only that which they can carry to work with, to build a 5 mile wide community of artists, crafters, performers, idealists, and performers to come together in a huge creative melting pot they call Burning Man. This group of people do not use or take money with them, but rather trade their skills, crafts, or items that they have brought for survival. When our friends over at Love & Trash first approached us about doing a Burning Man Wear-a-thon/style off, we were so thrilled. Where else could we get daily inside coverage on the world’s biggest “gifting” and sustainable trade community in the world? This is how Anne-Marie Goco, a.k.a. Sgt. Slaughter, got enlisted as our first Burning Man wear-a-thon. We wanted to know a little more about her before she started her challenge…
Bright Young Thing Wear-a-thon, Lily
I met Lily Saporta-Tagiuri in the 4th grade. Back then she had a head full of braids and bracelets up to her elbow- she has always stuck out against the crowd as a girl with her own style. Today she pulls together brilliant outfits of rich fabrics, vibrant colors, funky prints and delicate details that inspire those around her to play with their own wardrobes in new ways. We look forward to following her wear-a-thon this summer!

Bright Young Thing Wear-a-thon, Eliza Starbuck
When I get dressed I try to imagine I’m going to a cocktail party with dancing in Outer-space; it would be illustrated by Harry Clarke, hosted by Titania, and the attendees would include some very well decorated Amazon Warriors, a shining Joan of Arc, and the Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers… Read More>>
Bright Young Thing Wear-a-thon, Kathleen Scully
This is Kathleen Scully. She’s an amazing designer, philosopher, color theorist, intellectual, and collector of all things beautiful. She recently received one of the Uniform Project 365 Limited Edition dresses and immediately started her own wear-a-thon almost by accident. When she began sending in her daily photos to our Submit Your Photos gallery we were so impressed with her style that we offered her a starring spot as one of our featured Wear-a-thoners. So now she’s officially taking on her own Wear-a-thon challenge and we wanted to share a little bit more about her before she sets out on her month long adventure in the little black dress… Read More>>

HOW WOULD YOU DISCRIBE YOUR PERSONAL STYLE? Haute-Barnyard Couture, think “Green Acres”. I love fashion but really the country life appeals to me. I’m more about accessories than I am about clothing. I’ll wear overalls, and I’ll pair them with some crazy vintage heels and handbag and my look works both on the farm and in New York City… Read More>>
The Uniform Project
Would you ever wear the same dress for a year, whether to raise awareness, raise money, save money, save natural resources, challenge yourself creatively, or just to remember what your closet can do for you?… Read more>>
