2018 Fashion Design & Merchandising Department Contest Celebration
The
Fashion Design and Merchandising Department hosted its annual student
contest. Students chose a mystery bundle and set out to create a cocktail
dress. Thirty students participated and the garments were
outstanding! The contest was not a part of a class assignment, but an
opportunity for students to test their design skills in their free time. Thirty
two faculty, staff and advisory board members voted on their favorite
designs. The criteria for judging was: quality of design, creativity,
construction, use of the fabrics from their mystery package and that they
followed the theme of Cocktail dresses.
Winners
of the contest were announced at a celebration on Friday, May 4 and money
prizes (scholarships) were given to the top winners.
In total, 14 students in the Fashion Design & Merchandising Department
received $900 each in scholarships!
