La Cañada High School art teacher Serafina Kenwood has been selected to participate in this year’s Metropolitan Fashion Week on Thursday, Sept. 28, in Los Angeles.
The free public event, including a runway show and costume competition, will take place at 6:30 p.m. at the Original Farmers Market at 6333 W. 3rd St., Los Angeles. The theme this year is a tribute to Colleen Atwood, a four-time Oscar-winning costume designer.
Kenwood estimates she has spent about three hours a day on her costume since learning she’d been selected as one of the participating designers three months ago. She isn’t allowed to show her design to anyone — including interested students — but she can reveal that her costume is inspired by the Red Queen character designed by Atwood in “Alice Through the Looking Glass.”
