You've got 2 ladders, 355 rolls of fluorescent tape and 48 hours;
where would your creativity take you?
If your talented, Texan, and hired by mega fashion brand Kate Spade
and your name is Rebecca Ward, this is what unfolds, literally.
During New York fashion week, Ward created her second (tape) 'installation' for
Kate Spade at their Broome Hill store to kick-off Spring.
With it's zillions of pink and yellow tape to compliment their new Spring line, Kate Spade threw what they dubbed as a "Tape Party" complete with a designated "Tape Bar".
Stocked with rolls of sticky gaffers tape, and blank journals in which to encourage
New Yorker's to "live colorfully" and be creative.
Guests with cocktails in hand, music bumping; ripped, tore, and
stuck to fuel their creative genius.
or 'not'...
“We fell for her playful appeal and bold use of color – two things we take seriously
at Kate Spade New York,” said the store of Rebecca Ward.
Enter to win the Rebecca Ward custom taped "Maryanne" tote here on
facebook by entering the Kate Spade 'Pop of Color Contest'. Must
enter by Monday March the 8th.
Kate Spade first joined forces with Ward for an installation in their Aoyama
flagship store in Tokyo. They fell hard for her creativity
and brought the collaboration home.
Be sure to check out Wards tape installation and Kate Spade's newest collection
at the New York flagship located on 454 Broome St. until the first of July 2010.

Actually quite amazing.....no wonder that colour masking tape is becoming so popular. Maybe I should be wrapping with it! Fun post.

How fun and creative is that! I love it.

Just at a museum event, and the craft table was filled with colored tape! I love it! Such a fun way to spice up mundane tasks!
Holy Mackerel!

Wow how incredibly creative! I would have never heard of this if it weren't for you and your uber fabulous blog! Hope you had a grand weekend Deb! xoxo
How fantastic!!! the store looks almost surreal as a 3 dimensional walk in sculpture. Thank you Deb for showing us what is happening in the world of fashion....and in my neck of the woods since Broome Street is about 10 minutes walk from my Showroom!!
OK That is some creative cool!!!
absolutely wild.
pink and yellow is fun....
but...
i am a texan!
and i don't think i could complete any 'tape assignments.'
xx crazy post though!! xxx
I cannot get over the precision of the taping, that would be soooo hard to do consistently.

i'll bet there was a major chemical high!
oh my gosh, this is too fun! however, as a girl who has used dozens (hundreds?) of rolls of painters tape in her life, i have to say that it also makes me feel a teeny bit anxious. imagine the amount of work...
hope you're doing well sweetie, i've been thinking about you. XOXO, M
Oh My Goodness Deb
There are so many creative minds out there.. Creativity and tenacity!! It's amazing how repetitive use and synchronized placement can create such dramatic results!! From a simple roll of tape!! amazing.. great post!! Hope you are well xx Julie

Deb,
Just beautiful. I love it. What an amazing post. Hope you are well.
Hi Deb - what a lot of fun - something in short supply in these days of doom and gloom...thanks so much for stopping by - I shall be back to catch up....warm wishes, Susie x
Way cool!!! I wish I was there! I don't know what I would of done with my pieces of tape. So creative - leave it to those Texans ya know. hahahah ☺
Good Grief !!!! How did they do that. I can't understand what happens with the sticky side ! Does it get all 'bits' on it ? If I had attenpted that i would have been stuck to it as well !!!!
I think that it looks brilliant and must have been a nightmare to do . I would have had tape in places that you wouldn't think it would be possible to have tape!! I loved this post Deb. Really fun and so interesting to see what can be done with such a simple roll of tape. XXXX
tape?!??! who would have thought?!?! beautiful too.
if only rebecca ward could make a stop over to my house and do the same thing with dog hair.....(remember i have 3-aack)!!!
lots of love,
katie
Hi Deb! So good to hear from you today! Doing OK; it's hard and freezing weather compounds the misery for sure. We get the red marks in our toilet water, too. My remedy seems to work. Good Luck! xo kitty
Great post! Love it! So cool and fun! We are all doing well here. Trying to stay busy and not sick! Hugs to you!!!
Wow, I love it! This looks like it would've been SUCH a fun party to attend.
Hope you had a great weekend, Deb!
I cannot imagine the mind that thinks something like up....genius! I also would not want to be the one that had to keep the tape 'unstuck'!
Fab!
Hi Deb, this is just amazing, I love it!! I use some colored tape for different projects but have never seen it taken to this level of fabulousness. Hope your doing well.
xoxo
Loved the color and the energy of this post. It cheered me up after the closing of the Olympic Games here in Vancouver.
I have a hate-hate relationship with tape Deb. This post has sent me straight to the Therapist's couch!
Millie ^_^
Wow, this is just amazing. Your comment made me laugh on my recent post...thanks for always making me smile! :)

Hi Deb...just checking in, any life changing decisions in progress....
Fascinating, Deb! Such colors! And so very Kate Spade-looking!
This is quite simply amazing!! Love it!!
Very very cool! I love how people can use the same material and make things that are so different. That always fascinates me.
*kisses* HH
So fun! Might have to go check it out when I'm in NYC this weekend!
xoxox,
CC
Wow!! I had no idea tape could be so creative and fun!! And colourful too :-)
I wonder how long it took her to design the layouts for the tape -- the way the strips of tape criss-cross each other is mind-boggling!!
