What do you think of when someone mentions the tango dance?For me the dance conjures up images of fashionably dressed and sophisticated people connecting to exotic melodies.Indeed, the intertwining of fashion and tango dance is evident throughout the history of the dance.
A local event here in San Diego called Tangolicious will examine this link between fashion and tango dance.Tangolicious will feature guest artist and headwear designer Susan Lake and performances by the TangoCentric Dance Project.(Check out the interview I did with Susan Lake for Ritmo Bello here) The event also boasts special Tangotini cocktails and plenty of desserts to enjoy as well.
