Anna Dicklhuber, a fashion student at Ballard’s own New York Fashion Academy won 1st place in the  Seattle Art Museum’s Masquarade costume design competition, hosted at the Pacific Place mall last Saturday. Her winning pieces will be displayed on the 7th avenue window of Pacific Place mall for three months starting this Sunday.

Competitors were asked to design and produce costumes inspired by  works of art from the Seattle Art Museum. Dicklhuber’s inspirations were a Jipae Mask, Cai Guo-Qiang’s Inopportune car explosion installation and Roy Lichtenstein’s Red Painting.

First runner up, Jason Arrington, featured a piece based off of Joan of Arc. Arrington  is also a student at New York Fashion Academy.
