FASHIONISTAS 2025 is on view now through March 22, 2025, at the Orange County Center for Contemporary Art.

The exhibition features a dynamic range of works, including text, symbols, posters, placards, video, photography, paintings, sculpture, functional objects, installations, and new media projects.
The public is invited to the Art Walk Reception on Saturday, March 1, from 6–10 PM to experience the exhibition firsthand.
