Resa’s Website

My name is Resa McConaghy. I’m a semi-retired Costume Designer for film and television.

My first Art Gown “Strawberry Kisses” was to create some beauty in my life after mom died. It was a hit with people, so I continued to make and post more “Art Gowns”.

At some early point, I began upcycling, repurposing and in general making the gowns out of any fabric or notions that were not new goods. I was using up anything headed for landfill.

The Art Gowns are available to borrow or rent (situation dependant) for Gala’s, photo shoots and film production.

This article explains the Art Gowns nicely. Just click on the header below:

            1. I made that saying up, as far as I know. It was in an interview I did.
              I believe it.
              It’s not just paintings and drawings, it’s all of the arts: music, painting, poetry, stories, plays, sculpture, film, dance and more.
