(5.18) Fashion show Friday night,
Collection 2012, the Apparel Design department’s popular fashion show, will take to the runway on Friday, May 18 at the Rhode Island Convention Center in downtown Providence. After months of conceptual development, experimentation and meticulous construction, students have an opportunity to showcase their one-of-a-kind creations to the public at this annual event. For the enthusiastic audience, it’s a fun and fast-paced evening of entertainment offering a sneak peak at the fashion tastemakers and trendsetters of the future.
The designs shown in each year’s Collection are juried by a panel of guest critics – professional designers who carefully review and discuss the work together, give students critical feedback and select the best garments for the runway show.
All proceeds benefit the RISD Scholarship Fund. (Seen here: Designs by senior Hope MacDonald.)
$42-$62, 8pm, Friday, May 18, RI Convention Center, 1 Sabin Street
