MEET THE ARTISTS

Shel is the creator, owner, and operator of The New Orleans Costume Center, only a few doors down from JAMNOLA. She is very well known for her love of costuming around town in New Orleans. She loves to take items that are old and make them into new and fabulous pieces of wearable art. The costumes she makes usually involve lots of feathers and sparkle, are meticulously detailed, and crafted with care. “I love to make costumes that are beautiful, that make you feel like a star, and that are functional—because you need to be comfortable to have a good time and to give a great performance.”
