Alta Moda - Mario Testino

Saw this show the other week at the Queen Sophia Spanish Institute in NYC.

 the colors were just gorgeous.

It was an antidote to endless melting snow-seas at every street corner and mud colored icebergs . They are photographs of the costumes of a Cusco, Peru folkloric dance group.

It was a lovely, sunny show.  The scale of the photos is enormous, displayed in pitch dark galleries.  So alive!  Still on through March 29, 2014.

I highly recommend these photos, wherever they end up in the world .  You will go to sleep with these lively warm colors behind your eyes.  I did.

HAVE A NICE WEEKEND!
