The theme for the event will be “Project Nunway Six-Six-Six: Heretics of Fashion”, which evokes a playful and irreverent twist on beastly, demonic imagery as well as a rebellious attitude toward the hierarchy of fashion. The original inspiration for the Project Nunway came from both the reality TV show and a scene from Fellini’s 1972 film “Roma” featuring a Vatican fashion show.
The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence® is a leading-edge Order of queer nuns. Since our first appearance in San Francisco on Easter Sunday, 1979, the Sisters have devoted ourselves to community service, ministry and outreach to those on the edges, and to promoting human rights, respect for diversity and spiritual enlightenment. We believe all people have a right to express their unique joy and beauty and we use humor and irreverent wit to expose the forces of bigotry, complacency and guilt that chain the human spirit.
