I thought it would be fun, on this grey, wet Winter’s day, to think back to my wonderful time at West Dean College.
At the end of Summer School there is a magnificent party which is themed with Dali in mind. We were all invited to dress accordingly
I donned one of my knitted wigs and my Frida Kahlo headband.
I don’t usually wear make-up and am so out of practice that my attempt at ‘surreal’ meant that I looked as if I had two lurid black eyes!
The dinner was fabulous with many Dali references
The art students created Mae West lip masks, after the sofa. One of the original sofas is at West Dean College.
I also wore some crazy trousers that I bought in the early 1980s and some flashing trainers that I bought to wear to my daughter’s recent 40th birthday party.
In the photo with me is C, a student on the sculpture course. She gave me permission to post the photos – thank you C!
The Summer School Party was very silly and a LOT of FUN!
I love Salvador Dali- we visited his museum in Spain, wonderful- and saw the sofa. You look fab, love your friend’s moustache. Did you know he designed the crop dusting scene in North by Northwest.

Silly and fun! What a great combination. Those flashing trainers—or sneakers as we call them here—are pretty snazzy.

The kids have trainers with flashing lights in the soles and at last I found some in my size – they are wild! 🙂
