The City of Farmington Hills Special Services Department CULTURAL ARTS DIVISION PRESENTS: The unique, edgy paper dress creations made   of entirely recycled materials by artist    Matthew Richmond March 9 - April 13 on display at the City Gallery inside the Costick Center: 28600 W. Eleven Mile Rd., Farmington Hills, 48336 You are invited to meet the artist   at a public reception on   Monday, March 19, from 6-9 pm.   Richmond's designs have most recently been seen on Channel 4's "Dateline Detroit Primetime Edition", featuring the gown that caused quite a stir when worn by the station's reporter Ashlee Baracy at the Detroit Auto Show. Baracy's stunning gown was made entirely from auto brochures. Richmond's designs have also been worn by live models at Royal Oak's Gallery U, at an "ambush fashion show" in downtown Royal Oak, and have been exhibited at other venues and galleries. The City Gallery is his sixth exhibit. Richmond's materials vary from plastic Kroger bags to Target holiday wrapping paper. Although he has no formal training in clothing design, Richmond says he has always been fascinated by couture fashion. One of his favorite designers is Bob Mackie, the artist known for his dazzling designs created for stars such as Cher, Carol Burnett and The Spice Girls. "My first creation was inspired by an old bust form that I found in my parents' basement," says Richmond. "I was bored one afternoon, and decided to try to design a futuristic dress for the form out of old gift wrap, and as they say, the rest is history". The exhibit also features a wide array of fashion images by various photographers, starring Richmond's designs. The City Gallery is located in the Costick Center, 28600 W. Eleven Mile Road, and is open Monday - Friday from 8:30 - 4:30 and during special events.    For more information, call the Farmington Hills Cultural Arts Division at (248) 473-1856.  Photos by Janna Bissett
