Last Sunday, Emerson Fashion Society hosted their annual fashion show. This year’s event, entitled “Fashion Odyssey,” was a great success, and featured pieces from eight different Emerson students who presented creative collections that they have been working on for the past several months. Their hard work certainly paid off, and helped Emerson Fashion Society raise money for The Trevor Project, a national organization whose purpose is to provide crisis and suicide prevention services to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning youth.
Here are a few highlights of the evening’s event:
A piece from Kate Spalla’s dessert-inspired collection, Bonbon.
From the collection Lutescens, by designers Bonnie Ong, Johanna Silver, and Lacey Russell.
From Ariel Knoebel’s collection, Wanted. Knoebel was awarded the opportunity to make a costume for a BFA film expected to be made this summer!
From the collection Every Creep for Himself, by designer Kristin Arzt. She actually used real bones for this dress!
A piece from the collection Classic MG, by Thespi Guatieri and Sarah Schneider.
A knitted scarf from Eric Maxwell and Lizzie Swerdlin’s collection, Stitch N Bitch, which featured handmade knit accessories.
From the collection Runaway Runway, by designers Patria Ferragamo and Angela Armijo.
Emily Sawich modeling designs from her own collection, Whim Songs. Sawich was presented the award for Best Designer.
Following the fashion show, Brianna Baxter accepts the title of the 2011 Emerson’s Next Top Model.
