Saturday, October 22, 2016, was a major day for Her Campus as HC chapters and Panhellenic sororities from all over LA gathered together to celebrate the 5th anniversary of College Fashion Week and the 48th runway show. The event was hosted by Harvard Graduate and HC co-founder Windsor Hanger Western and featured brands and sponsors from Rebecca Minkoff, Fitbit, Drybar, KIND bars, and Boxed Water, just to name a few.
The venue for the event was downright lit as girls received free items left and right. These items included large bags of practical goodies, snacks, and beverages. If that’s not enough incentive, representatives from Sambazon were there and they gave everyone free ACAI BOWLS. But wait, that’s not all, girls and select gentlemen over the age of 21 had the option to drink champagne and wines (so classy!). And if you’re still not reeling about the fact that you weren’t there, the European Wax Center was giving out free eyebrow waxes and they had staff taking polaroid pictures of all attendees in front of the trademark step and repeat (yes, they gave it to you afterwards).
Let’s talk about the main event, shall we? The actual runway show was a set of four runway fashion styles that emulated the life of a college girl. Ensembles ranging from study-chic, to girls’ night out, to classroom fashion, and even recruitment week fashion were presented by models who were also real college girls! The clothes shown were from Her Campus partners ali & ariel, FORAY, frill, mysocialcanvas, and Bow & Drape New York.
Her Campus Pepperdine even had our very own Brooke Muschott partake in this event making our chapter so proud!
