Chris King and Qlynton Carboo met in early 2022 creating marionettes for Worcester’s 300th anniversary parade. For the past two years they collaborated on after school program art projects at The Jubilee Center for the Performing Art. They decided to create apparel using Chris’ hand-woven fabric and Qlynton’s design and fashion sense. This long coat entitled, Chenille for “The Artist Formerly Known as Prince,” embodies the imaginations of both artists. The woven fabric was produced by Chris. The purple fabric, coat design, cutting, and sewing was Qlynton’s hard work. Qlynton tailored the coat to fit Chris. The design is unisex.
