Denton’s runway celebrates invisible strength

Models with chronic illnesses and disabilities took center stage at Denton’s Yellow Dog Art Bar, wearing bold, body-inspired pieces that made the invisible visible. Artist Emily Cavender’s collection—think velvet uteruses and fabric intestines—sparked powerful conversations about conditions often hidden from view. The show wasn’t just about art; it was about breaking silence, finding community, and reclaiming pride. Audience members and models alike shared how seeing their struggles represented so openly helped them shed shame and connect with others. What would it mean if more spaces made room for these stories? How do you think art can change the way we talk about disability? #Entertainment #Painting #DisabilityPride

Did Carnera’s 1936 Fame Overshadow Piaf? 🤔

Seeing these colorized 1936 photos, I can’t help but wonder if Primo Carnera’s superstar status back then totally stole the spotlight from rising talents like young Edith Piaf.

Anyone else think Piaf’s early career got buried under all the sports hype? #Entertainment #Painting #VintageDrama
