Expect the Unexpected at Cabaret Voltaire

By: Michelle White
For: LA Splash

"As shouts of “Viva Dada!” rang out in the audience, the fashion show began, showcasing Julie Plum’s designs for the Klaklo line. Models sauntered out one by one in limited edition print tee shirts inspired by Dada and made specifically for this event. Filtered percussive music provided the sonic background, which elicited laughter such as when a vaguely Asian-accented female voice proclaimed “Green dot” over the music, and a model emerged in a pink shirt with a large green “dot” on the sleeve and the side. The music incorporated phrases in many languages, some as random as “Steamed yams. Candied yams. Microwaved yams. George Forman yams.” And indeed, the models would methodically regard their Swatch limited edition Cabaret Voltaire Watches from the Swatch/Dada Collection, select an object off a table, and present an audience member with the unexpected gift (ranging from yams to broccoli to toy scissors). Some models smiled at the wacky humor of it all, while some maintained a lofty, classic model’s attitude, while all seemed at times like product demonstrators hamming it up. The audience gave the show their rapt attention through the no-less-odd finish when the models returned for a group bow and walked offstage with masks attached to the back of their heads, as though their bodies were on backwards."
