...show’s peripheral elements serve to provide a solid background to its comic madness. The lighting design of Tiffany M. Bradshaw ’10 contributes effectively to the mood, despite a chaotic and disorienting series of color changes near the finale. The gaudy Elizabethan costumes, created by Pugliese, further add to the production’s merrily boisterous feel...
Conflict elsewhere in the country was inflected in other collections. Some of the loudest cheers were raised for both the subtlest and unabashed tributes to the Pakistan army. Few items received as much attention as young designer Feeha Jamshed's dirty-green khaki (the army's favorite color) dress. As the model twirled on the start of the ramp, she swung open the lower half of the dress to reveal a lengthy slit...

But once the bad times began, they never quit. In 1946 a fire in his Connecticut studio destroyed more than 20 paintings. Then came rectal cancer and a car accident that left his painting arm temporarily immobilized. Then his wife left him, taking the kids. In despair and constant pain, he hanged himself. He was only 46 - a short life...
