First Fashion Show

  Last Friday my fashion class hosted our first fashion show, showing off the clothes we made from our new collections made out of the recycled clothing from the thrift store. We got in teams of 3 or 4 and had to make a mood board to see where we were going with the collections, after that we took a trip to the thrift with a budget of  $150 to get what ever we thought we would need, then we started sketching our clothes and seam ripped a lot of clothes so we could start making the garments.


My team went with a sunset summer vibe because it's about that time of year, we had 4 different looks, one for every designer, one bride look, one men's look and two other women look. Our collection we used a lot of lace, denim, mesh. I think our fashion show was a success, we sold out with over 200 people and I really like how all of our looks were different with a different theme and vibe like one collection was dark and scary another one very flowery and the clothing looking like it's owned by fairies.
After we showed all the group collections we showed off the avant-garde clothes that we made out of these collar shirts that were donated to the class, they were made in under a week so there wasn't one for everyone to model but there were about 9 finished ones and they all looked great, and looked like something just off a high fashion runway they didn't look like student made them.
