Fashionistas, alert! Neodandi House of Couture, which opened its doors this August in Pioneer Square, will be hosting their debut fashion event Saturday, December 5. Off The Wall: A Neodandi Fashion Opera, a tribute to Michael Jackson’s life and unique style, promises "an eclectic evening of Michael Jackson inspired music, dancing and fashion collections for men and women, chronicling the famous entertainer’s career."

"Michael Jackson has been an inspiration to me throughout my artistic journey, and I wanted Neodandi to honor him at the opening fashion event of our flagship store as a reflection of the life and style of a great spirit," says Neodandi owner Niilartey De Osu. "He is a true legend and we will celebrate his memory through fashion, music and dance."

Tickets for the event include an open bar, hors d‘oeuvres, DJ and VJ entertainment, a fashion show of Neodandi's Michael Jackson-inspired collection, and professional dancers performing to a soundtrack of remixed Jackson classics. The event will also feature a live auction of three original Neodandi designs, direct from the runway. All proceeds from the auction will be donated to Seattle Children's Hospital.

Neodandi House of Couture is a partnership between designer and artist NiiLartey De Osu and Ullie De Osu. Described as a "self-taught neoillusionist artist," NiiLartey De Osu works in a variety of art forms including fashion, painting, and literature: poetry, prose, as well as screenplays, dramaturgy, and film directing. His clothing designs are a study of texture, movement, color, and creating new ideas about fashion.
