High Fashion Halloween with Gunnar Deatherage
Britex has teamed up with Project Runway and Project Runway All Stars favorite Gunnar Deatherage to create some high fashion Halloween magic!!
In addition to running his own successful design studio, Gunnar has found an audience of young makers on TikTok and Instagram by streaming his creative process to his over 1.5 million followers. When Gunnar told us he wanted to do his own spin on Lydia’s red wedding dress from Beetlejuice, we jumped in to provide the fabric. Lots and lots of red tulle, and some gorgeous cotton blend corded red lace. The end result is an absolutely stunning take on the iconic costume, along with a beautifully hand-sewn headpiece.
As icing on the spooky wedding cake, the dress was shipped off to New York to be modeled by Dana Steingold from the cast of Beetlejuice the Musical–the Broadway adaptation of Tim Burton’s classic.
Thanks for working with us, Gunnar! The result is so creative and beautiful, and here’s to many more collaborations!
