I went to the Secret Garden Party this summer it was pretty much my highlight of the summer. Its my favourite festival of the entire year as its just so unique and majestic, to sum it up in four words is a garden-party-gone-crazy!
Its set in the 10 acre grounds of a Georgian Manor and it includes a river and a lake which you can do whatever you like in! It's one of the most beautiful and magical festivals in all the land, its ethos is all about creativity, colour and mystery. Its a escape from reality, with surprises and new experiences everywhere you look!

| Images courtersy Danny North Latex Bunnies and Horned Hairy Goats! |
This year the theme was "Where The Wild Things Are" and everyone went full out with it! The costumes were amazing there was every type of creature and beast you could imagine from latex clad bunnies to hairy, horned goat-esque men!
I love the two images at the top of this post as they show just how far everyone took the dressing up, it was amazing to walk around and see all these different characters.
I love the look of the latex and the feel of it, its very tactile. I would like to use it at some point but I think I want to go for more organic textures like knit and fur with this project.
This quote on the image is from "Where the Wild Things Are" and i think it reflects the attitude of the festival. Basically its a safe place for adults to be what they want to be for just one weekend and its all about being happy and not letting in any sadness or your adult stresses! The festival is the sadness shield and it will keep out all the sadness.
Ill post some more info about the festival later so check back to se some more amazing pics from the weekend!
