2009 Fashion Show: Fashion Metamorphosis
Students at The Art Institute of California – San Francisco Showcase Their Creative Talents and Unique Design at the 2009 Fashion Show: Fashion Metamorphosis
Beautiful designs take flight on the runway, revealing the incredible transformative power of fashion and the constant evolution of design.
[SAN FRANCISCO, CA, MAY 2009] – Join us for a spectacular evening of fashion and style at Fashion Metamorphosis, The Art Institute of California – San Francisco’s Student Fashion Show and Competition. Fashion Metamorphosis will be held on Saturday, June 20 at 7pm at the San Francisco Design Center (101 Henry Adams Street). Fashion Metamorphosis gives Art Institute students the opportunity to parade their collections down the runway to an audience of 1,400 guests, including industry professionals, Bay Area designers, fellow students, family and friends.
Fashion Metamorphosis focuses on the creative evolution of fashion given current economic conditions and the globalization of a world economy. In these times, fashion forecasters are predicting a return to the classics, the fall of fast fashion, and a reemergence of unique design and creativity. This year, we have challenged our students to think about the future of fashion and expand their creative minds. The result is Fashion Metamorphosis.
This eclectic and unique event will showcase over 100 looks from 25 designers. The full range of fashions on the runway will portray emerging trends across all categories, including: vintage coats inspired by 1940’s Hollywood; Moulin-Rouge type show girl costumes; full wedding party including bridal gown, bridesmaid and flower girl dresses; lingerie; evening gowns; men’s wear; and a variety of children’s wear.
A panel of industry professionals and top designers will judge the fashions as they saunter down the runway. The judges will then decide whose designs received top marks for various categories, including “Most Creative” and “Best Design”. Students with the highest scores will be acknowledged at the show and awarded with special prizes.
Tickets are available by calling 415.276.1069 or 415.276.1011, Monday through Friday, 8AM – 6PM. Tickets are $20 for general admission / advance purchase or $25 at the door. Limited VIP tickets are also available for $50, which offer an all-access pass, floor seating on the main floor, gift bags, and a special VIP area with complimentary wine, beer, assorted beverages and hors d’oeuvres, as well as the styling sounds of DJ Alfredo Lopez.
Fashion Metamorphosis is being produced by students in the Fashion Show Production class at The Art Institute of California – San Francisco.
