ACCESS: SOUND FILE A day-long salon accompanying KYTN focusing on sound art.

Organised by Twiggy Pucci Garcon and Pony Zion, The Masters Ball focuses on the work of 50 individuals designated within the scene as ‘masters’ in their respective performance categories, which include Vogue, Runway, and Face.
