Ballet Pensacola Fashion Show Fundraiser

2011-11-23T19:30:00.024-05:00

A couple weeks ago, we went down to my hometown of Pensacola, FL to help Mom with a fundraising event to benefit Ballet Pensacola's scholarship fund. We participated in a fashion and trunk show along with local boutiques including The Market/Mainly Shoes, Susan Campbell Jewelry and Pandora de Balthazár. Professional soloists from the Ballet Company modeled pieces from our Fall 2011 and Spring 2012 collections in a runway presentation at Sanders Beach Community Center, posing against a wall of windows overlooking a breathtaking view of Pensacola Bay. Check out photos from the event below; for clothing details or to purchase a piece from the show, please CONTACT US.

Sara's New Suit

2011-07-25T21:30:00.016-04:00

Here at Mandate, we love to show off a beautiful figure. We also know that the most beautiful figures often don't come in flattened out prefab factory sizes. That's why we offer Opiate, our collection of limited edition reproducible organic confections, made to measure.

For far flung Mandate Cats, Opiate pieces are available cut to order exactly to your measurements as provided via email; we additionally offer support and suggestions if any other small tailoring proves necessary. However, for our New York customers, we're pleased to provide the extra treat of up to two custom fitting sessions here in our studio, so we can oversee the awesomeness of your new ensemble in person.

To give you an idea of how the process works, we took a few candid shots of the super stunning Sara Bender during our first and second fittings for her new Opiate cat and mouse suit. Check out the resulting eye candy below:

I. Measurement Fitting

To take Sara's measurements, and to get an idea of her future ensemble's fit, we asked her to try on a couple similarly shaped pieces from our Mint Collection.

ON SARA:

Mint Collection one of a kind lavender cat and mouse tie top, size small-medium, $150

CLICK HERE TO BUY THIS GUY RIGHT NOW!

Mint collection leftover silk tap shorts, size medium, $140

TO PURCHASE, CLICK HERE TO CONTACT US

II. Second Fitting

Sara stopped back by to try on her new suit, and to sort out a tiny adjustment.

ON SARA:

Opiate organic hemp/cotton Cat and Mouse 2 Piece Playsuit; available made to measure;

Mouse Tie Bodice: $170

Bias Cut Cat Shorts: $210

2 Piece Together: $350

TO PURCHASE, CLICK HERE TO CONTACT US

III. Finis!

Sara looks amazing in her awesome new playsuit; can't wait to work with this charming beauty again ;)

Not in the city? No worries! The Opiate Shop is always open ;)

Long Lost Shoots- Sneak Peek

2011-04-18T14:22:00.013-04:00

Because most of our designs are one of a kind or limited edition, we photograph just about every piece we make. However, we often sell everything in a shoot before getting a chance to post the images publicly. We've got hard drives full of these things, which seems a slight shame. Thus, this summer we're gonna bring some of these secret shoots to light. Below please find a little teaser from Summer 2007, and check back frequently for much more.

*The moral of this story, btw, is that if you don't want to miss any awesomeness, you'd best come visit! We'll continue, as always, to post as much new stuff online as possible; but if you wanna see it all, you've gotta make the trip ;)*

On Leah: vintage cotton plaid halter playsuit with antique crochet collar and grosgrain sash

On Carissa: vintage cotton feedsack kitten print bloomer playsuit with linen sash

On Leah: Vintage brushed cotton medallion print convertible overall suit with grograin ties

On Carissa: recycled silk bloomer playsuit with recycled silk sash

Not Cool, Oprah/Why Rip Offs Suck/The Problems With Preemptive Creative Co-Opting

2011-03-20T12:56:00.018-04:00

Rip offs have long been a rampant danger within the creative sector, but lately the collective perception of what's o.k. seems to be heading off the deep end. As inequity rises in all aspects of our world, individuals backed by companies with money and/or media power seem less and less cognisant of the independent creator's right to- and, more importantly, need for- recognition for the work they have created.

Typically for an independent company, we've felt the wrath of this crap ourselves; in fact, while we usually try to ignore such situations in relation to Mandate, we might have to talk about a few here soon. Today, though, we'd like to call your attention to the frustrating recent experience of a good friend of ours, poet and performance artist Kate Durbin. Below please find her description, reposted verbatim from her blog, of what went down. While coincidence must always be considered in cases like this, we think what really happened is pretty clear, and clearly uncool.

(BTW, thanks in advance for reading! The only way us little guys can combat shit like this is by standing up for one another, and refusing to let creative theft become accepted as status quo.)

XO Mandate

O Magazine Rip-Off Scandal

I am a Los Angeles-based poet and performance artist. Since October of 2009 I have been incorporating felt letters into my performances, on top of couture designed by Carissa Ackerman of the NYC design house Mandate of Heaven. These felt letters displayed the words POEM and POETRY, and have been well-documented on my blog and website.

On Dec 21, 2010, I received an email from someone at O, the Oprah Magazine. Here is that letter, along with the entire series of responses.

***

Hi Kate,

We're dedicating our Spring issue to poetry and doing a fashion shoot in the new year about up and coming poets. I was wondering if you'd be interested in being considered-if so could you stop by the Hearst Building and meet with me? I’m here 12/22-12/23 or 12/29-12/30 9:30-6pm. Thank You!

Morgan

***

Dear Morgan,

Wow--this sounds absolutely thrilling! I am, however, in Los Angeles and not New York. Is there any way to do a shoot here? I could meet with you via phone or Skype as well for the interview portion.

If not, perhaps I could find a way to make it to New York since this is such an exciting opportunity, but it would of course be a bit tricky at this time of year. Let me know what you think. I'm at [phone number] if you want to call.

Cheers,

Kate Durbin

***

Hi Kate,

Thank you for getting back to me-right now we are focusing on the tri-state and are not budgeted for travel but if we expand our search I’ll get back to you.

Thank you,

Morgan

***

Dear Morgan,

That's too bad. I would however be willing to fly to NY for the photoshoot on my own dime, we'd just have to do the initial interview via other means (Skype, phone call, etc).

I assume you've seen my costumes on my website or even better my blog, but they could give you an idea of my performance persona. If you scroll down the right hand side of the blog (www.katedurbin.blogspot.com) you'll see the listing under "Fashion."

Either way, it's very exciting that the Oprah magazine is dedicating a feature to poets!

Best,

Kate Durbin

***

Hi Kate,

Please send me recent digital pictures of yourself-full length, profile, waist up and up close. Also please send me your: age, sizes (shoe, pant, shirt, dress, bra) and height and I’ll put you up for submission.

Thank you,

Morgan

***

Dear Morgan,

I've attached several digital photos here--please let me know if you need any more.

I am 29 years old. My measurements are:

[Measurements]

Thank you and happy holidays!

Best,

Kate Durbin

***

Morgan’s last email to me simply read:

Thank you!

***

Perhaps by thank you Morgan meant—thank you for giving us such a great idea to steal for the magazine shoot, L.A. poet. These are two of the images from my blog’s Fashion section, which I directed Morgan to:

Below you will see one of the images that appeared in the magazine, suspiciously bearing black felt-looking letters. Unfortunately it won't let me paste the rest of them, but you can click the link below to see them. Camille Rankine's hair piece in particular reminded me of Amaranth's and my Excess Exhibit poufs below, combined with the felt letters above.

Click here to see Camille Rankine's hairpiece and the rest of the O Poets images...

Is this all a coincidence? It’s possible. The editor may have seen felt letters in Joanne's Fabric store and felt inspired, and perhaps he never even browsed my blog's Fashion section. Either way, the entire thing left me with a bad taste in my mouth, and I usually love Mama O.
