SIG ZANE TO DEBUT NEW COLLECTION AT SOIREE
Big Island artist and fashion designer Sig Zane is holding a holiday party to debut his latest collection, Pu'umanawale'a, which celebrates a sense of place. Zane says, "The hills of our islands are famous in story, song and dance. The prominent pu'u, Le'ahi, Puowaina, Kohelepelepe, Pu'u'o'o, dot our landscapes and are likened to the beauty marks on a person's face. The 2009 styles represent tradition, experience and celebration. Each has a name. They speak culturally, share the varied places we've been and they celebrate life and art."
Zane debuts the collection from 7 to 9 p.m. tonight at his store in Historic Downtown Hilo, 122 Kamehameha Avenue; 808-935-7077 or http://www.sigzane.com.
