How Salvador Dalí has influenced your wardrobe

“As Salvador Dalí once claimed, ‘I try to create fantastical things, magical things, things like in a dream.’ Right now, perhaps such a statement speaks to our collective mood: one in which we are navigating a new and often unpredictable era, looking not just for straightforward escapism but, much like a dream, new ways of interpreting the everyday too.”

In a year when everything has felt a little topsy-turvy and upside down, surrealist motifs dominated fashion design. We trace this trend back to Dali's lobster dress in 1937.

So grateful to the Latino Cultural Center for hosting the talented Alia Mohamed who plays the theremin and does an amazing belly dance, along with her father Jamal Mohamed who plays percussion instruments from around the world and leads the SMU World Music program, and Jeremy Jones who plays the clarinet and remixes DJ-style for Saturday’s night’s “Electric Hamsa”.
