The Smitten Kitten presents Lollycopter Loves EveryBODY, a runway show and retail event. Magic Marc hosts this very special evening as the retail environment of the multiple award-winning adult sex toy retailer, Smitten Kitten, is transformed into a fashion and variety show. The show will unveil new up-cycled slip dresses and special occasion garments for spring and summer from local designer Joan Vorderbruggen’s eco-conscious clothing line, Lollycopter. The audience will be treated to live musical performances by Neva Rosina, Gretchen Seichrist, and drag performance by Ms. Sasha Rodgers. The runway will feature new looks presented by traditional, alternative, and plus-size models with hair by Nicolette Klenk and makeup by Nikkol Michaelis. Musical accompaniment provided by DJ Sara Jean.
All Lollycopter designs are produced from vintage materials, exclusively turning forgotten vintage slips and lingerie into treasured works of sublimely, feminine wearable art, using low-impact dyes and re-purposed trims and embellishments.
About The Smitten Kitten: It is a wonderful, independently owned and operated, multiple award winning, completely sex-positive environment. The Smitten Kitten is committed to supporting local artists and designers and has been the only local sex toy retailer to uphold a “safe product” ethic since opening its doors in 2003, making them a very treasured presence in the community.
