Fine Art on the Runway

The Director of ARA Boston, Cindy MacMillan is one of the most amazing women I've ever met. Not only is she a fantastic painter, a great teacher, a savvy businesswoman, but she also uses her painting skills on her daughters fashion designs. Voila, Cindy MacMillan hand painted originals on the famous Hilary MacMillan line of clothing. Aren't these phenomenal?!?!
