Costume Design, Craigslist, and everything in between with Mel Wong of Meadow Land

Update: 2024-04-29

Description

We’re going behind the scenes and to the dinner table with Melanie Wong. Founder of Meadow Land, Craigslist connoisseur, and costume designer for a traveling Stars Wars burlesque show - Mel has quite the resume. When she’s not designing for others, Mel designs for the inner child. Taking preloved, intricately detailed tablecloths and transforming them into ethereal slips, camis, and more. Fashion students, theater kids, and Craigslist lovers - this one’s for you.
