Your Bio

My interest in photography with a focus on ladies fashion, nearly the foremost passion in my life, commenced when I was given a Kodak Brownie when I was around 8 years old. The fashion part was certainly not foremost at that time, however the interest in capturing beauty was.
Today I spend my time at finding the beauty portrayed by models, wearing ladies' wear fashionable in yester-year during vintage fashion shows, and collating them using gallery techniques available with the computer, that best exhibits the inner beauty of the person shining through the fashion of the day, both today, as well as then.

Approximately 600-700 people enjoyed the celebration in the jam packed gym of the West Heights Elementary School and on the other side Indian food cooked by Mission Sikh Temple attracted a long line up for Samosas, rice and chick peas and colorful Jalebis. It was a carnival for children and their parents, seniors of all diverse communities having Diwali crafts, face painting and dances. Priest from Fraser Valley Hindu Cultural Society offered prayers to Godess Laxmi and the Mission Sikh Temple priest shared the meaning of Diwali.

The Opera Ball : ""The Operaball" - Comic Opera by R. Heuberger Much of late 19th century Vienna revolved around elegant parties with ballroom dancing, the best-loved of which were masked balls at the opera. In Heuberger's opera, Paul takes his wife Angelika to the big city to visit Jörg and Margret. The ladies contrive to test the faithfulness of their husbands by dictating an invitation to the Opera Ball and directing the chambermaid to deliver them secretly to Paul and Jörg. The gentlemen enjoy the time of their lives at the ball except that their dates keep escaping. The following day, accusations prevail until all find out that the mysterious lady the men were making out with was neither their wife nor the wife of the other but… Included in this opera by Heuberger are also some of the most famous Waltzes by Johann Strauss jr. like the "Blue Danube Waltz" and the "Emperor Waltz" accompanied by live orchestra."

Kick Up Your Heels & Loosen your Corset! : Food, Fun, Laughter and Memories
Ivan is a self-proclaimed fashion historian. He is considered to have one of the best collections of vintage clothing and accessories dating as far back as the 1800s. His real joy is public speaking and coordinating historical fashion shows. Ivan believes that there is so much more to fashion than just pretty dresses. "The real issue is human liberation, and people living up to their human potential. We use the issue of women's physical emancipation to prove a point. So you take something very commonplace and make it thought provoking." Come join us as Ivan takes us from the days of corsets up to modern times.

Ivan Sayers: "Fee, Fi, Faux, Fun: Fakery in Fashion" : Is “faux” fashionable or not? April Fool’s Day is the perfect time to explore historic fashion’s fabulous and not-so-fabulous fakes with popular program presenter Ivan Sayers. Using live models, display items, and illustrative slides, Sayers will take a light-hearted look at such things as shape-altering corsets and padding, false hair, false eyelashes, teeth and fingernails, fun fur, and jewellery with dubious pedigrees.

Ivan Sayers: "Sugar & Spice" : "... Just in time for Valentine's day, the Original Costume Museum Society was pleased to present an historic fashion show illustrating and debating interpretations of femininity and attractiveness.  Is that blonde woman wholesome and vulnerable or cold-hearted and predatory?  Is that brunette next door the woman you want your son to marry or a vixen with an agenda?  An observer gets a message from fashion, which subtly declares a woman's appeal, character and romantic ambitions.
Over the last century, what subleties have made the lady-like woman look naughty, or the spicy women look nice?  We found out when costume historian Ivan Sayers and live models showed how style, cut, and colour have enhanced sexual attrativeness and how a woman's contribution to an outfit has an impact on her appeal..."

Serenades at Simmons is the perfect concert for the time of the year when the days are short and the weather is cold. You won't be sitting on hard pews or uncomfortable chairs, but lying on a Simmons mattress as you listen to serenades and lullabys drifting by you. Seven soloists slowly walk through the mattress gallery, singing to each one in the audience. Harp and piano provide the accompaniment to romantic songs like "Ain't it a Pretty Night", "Au Claire de la lune", "Deh, vieni alla finestra", or "Mondnacht". Serenades from opera, art song, musical and pop song will make this one of the most memorable and relaxing concert you will have ever been to! There is only limited space available, so be sure to reserve your tickets now.

Grass.Harmonica : This Gallery is dedicated to the contemporary Universal phenomenon commonly termed "Crop Circles" which I choose to call "The Grass Harmonica". During the viewing of a film and lecture by filmmaker Robert Nichol, I was moved to write the following email:

http://stardreams-cropcircles.com/
 
Hi there, you wonderful people!

We Xenia and I, (and a couple of friends of ours) watched your presentation in Abbotsford and were enthralled in so 

many ways.  I had so many "a ha's" that it felt like old-home week.  You see, we have been involved with all sorts of 

New Age'y things over many years, and I have been waiting for the 'next shoe' to drop.
As I mentioned to you, I do plan to give a presence on my website to the 'borderland sciences', an urge that awakened, 

and overcame me while watching the movie, and hearing you talk.
The original choice of using "gaia" in my website name was not intended as a catchy ploy.  I have always intended to 

follow up on the various exciting front-line researches and discoveries with relation to the borderland sciences.  So 

it  has been awaiting the day when the next shoe would drop, as it has.  Until recently it  served 

as a vehicle to play out one of my passions, that of female beauty, tied in with vintage fashion and my talent for 

photography.  I presume that this passion will endure, while others that are approaching will bring more diversity.
It seems that it is time to enrich the website with my other passions.
I believe, for a long time now, that the phenomenon of "Crop Circles" is the most important and blatantly obvious 

 message from higher intelligences to us all.  The human race, it seems, chooses to not acknowledge the 

phenomenon (almost like the proverbial bird with its head in the sand) partly because it is looking for signs of 

acceptance from those of us that should know, ?scientists?authorities? or whatever.  Those in power, the Bushs', the 

Blairs', the Popes', all are keeping their mouths shut, as if it  does not exsist.  The 

blatant point, however, is that, each solitary one of them, must realize that for all of their 'bunker-busting' might, 

none of them can emulate the apparently facile task of creating crop circles any place they wish, regardless of 

political, power, domination, or other lines of demarcation.  It must be a phemenon that to their shagrin, they have 

absolutely no power over.  According to their personal beliefs they may feel power-less.  They have the choice of 

either fearing the "Allmighty" forces (if they can make crop circles, what other nasty shows of power do they posses), 

or on the other hand, opposed to fearing, in trusting the evidently benign intent, and thus attempting a dialogue with 

the powers that be.  
Hence, they all must realize sooner, or later, that their little games of power and domination playing monopoly over 

gaia is a puny display of might, compared to the gentle, fenhshui majic trick of bending grasses in patterns that are 

riddles as well as instruments for all mankind to marvel at.
Thus first off, I want to put a banner up linking from www.gaiapix.com to your website.  I could "borrow" one of your 

banners, or I could create my own for you.  I suggest that it is probably better that your style and energy are 

represented on my website via one of your own banners.  So, if you like, send the banner to me, or send me a link to 

the address where you store it.

Couture Inside Out: The construction secrets of haute couture fashion, 1900 to 2000 : What is haute couture? What is prêt-a-porter? What is a licensed copy? What is a knock-off? Vancouver costumer Patrice Godin answered these questions during a presentation exploring the aesthetics and techniques of fit and construction that define haute couture sewing.
 Slides and garments from the collection of the Original Costume Museum Society, Ivan Sayers, Claus Jahnke, and others illustrated this talk about the finest clothing made in the twentieth century. 
   One of the models, Mary Lou, modeled an evening dress, adorned by a gorgeous feather display constructed into a distinctive hat.  Claus Jahke, collector of fine vintage garments, describes the provenance of this hat as follows:
" What a fantastic photo of Mary-Lou in the cocktail hat ! 
The hat is from the Salon of FRIEDL Stauber-Stendel  MUENCHEN / MUNICH.  Her millinery is of  the Couture Genre and this creation from the 50's is a wonderful example of  the post- war Wirtschafts Wunder/economic miracle of Germany and Europe."  
Special Event guest, Constance de Grandmaison, former house model for Chanel, was also present. 
A near-full audience came to learn valuable hints that can be incorporated into your own fashion world.

This transformation happened through necessity, changing economic and political roles, and changing social attitudes.

Driving Through The Decades...Fashion At The Steamworks Concourse d'Elegance 2006 : In an impressive display of grandeur, history and passion, almost a kilometer of classic and vintage cars were lined up along Gas Town’s historic attraction, ‘Water Street’, the street with the Steam clock, a street with Vancouver history reaching back so many years.  It was, once again, the Steamworks Concours d'Elegance, classic car show.
Laurel Gurnsey, wife of Colin, an avid car collector (a co-chair of the Steamworks Concours d'Elegance, also one of the judges), with a flair for history acted as a veritable dynamo and catalyst in creating this fashion event for the ladies.
Colin Gurnsey was a huge part of the team that planned the car event and has worked tirelessly to support Eli Gershkovitch (the host of the Steamworks Restaurant < http://www.martiniboys.com/Vancouver/Steamworks-Brewing-review.html)
“…I was concerned that many of the ladies who come to the event with their husbands often don't know each other and also have nothing special for them to do during the day.  So I initiated a ladies' event.  Last year we had Holt Renfrew bring models down and had a modern fashion show...”
Laurel Gurnsey helped to organize the Vintage Fashion show, in fact in her own words “…I contacted Ivan Sayers, found the sponsor, coordinated the food with the caterer, signed up the ladies, provided some of Ivan's requests (mirrors, water, etc.), and okayed the venue.  (She managed lot) but it was impossible to carry out without the backing of so many other people.  And nothing without Ivan's vitality and incredible knowledge.  A very cool guy…”
“…So the connection with the fashion show and the car show is an historic one. One that brings the beauty and elegance of ladies' fashions together with the beauty and elegance of the heritage automobiles out on Water Street…Restoration is also an important linkage.  Ivan has done an amazing job of preserving and restoring fashion.  The entrants in the car event love their cars/bikes.  There was a 1911 car on the street which has had only 2 owners.  There was an 1896 steam motorcycle which belongs to the curator of the Guggenheim Museum in Chicago.  There were Bugattis and Bentleys and a Horch.  Cars from all over the Pacific Northwest.  Many cars up from Seattle… The food and actual location of the event were provided by the Steamworks Restaurant, especially the host, Eli Gershkovitch and his catering manager Marnie Burnett and the fabulous chef.
I also have to remind you that the actual payment for Ivan came through the sponsorship of Vancouver Lifestyles Magazine and their vice-president of operations, Julie Hamilton.  They were very generous in their support and I mentioned them at the end of Ivan's show…”

presented:

I Haven't a Thing to Wear: A Revealing Look at Skin in Fashion History

As Valentine's Day nears, illustrations of naked (or nearly naked) cupids grace cards and candy boxes. Playful nudity, a sign of amorousness, is everywhere.

Ever since people started wearing clothes, they have been fascinated by nudity. How little can one wear and still be dressed? Can one be fully dressed and still appear indecent? How does what we see affect our perceptions of what we might see?

S Lee, who teaches at Kwantlen University College and in the Continuing Education Program at Emily Carr Institute of Art + Design, will examine the relationship of fashion to cultural views of the body in a provocative lecture and slide show. She will talk about the barely dressed body and how the nearly nude reflects fashions, politics, and social events from 25,000 BCE to the current day. Come see high glamour body painting by Patrice Godin.
