iMusic II and Synergy fashion show


I just thought that I would share an article from the UDaily website that talks about the iMusic II multimedia show that I as well as the other students in my senior collections class were involved in. the article can be found here:




I am not mentioned by name, but I am in the group shot. I'm wearing a zebra print jacket and my model for the show, Shelby, is standing next to me in one of my Delftwear pieces. Each student in my class got to show one design in the show, put on by the music department's Xiang Gao, an expert violinist. The performance featured classical music and theater and fashion inspired by it. I didn't get to see it, but I heard the reaction was good. I had volunteered to stay backstage to dress and prepare the models. I did get to see them go out and watch from the side of the stage.


Also I thought I would remind that the Synergy Fashion Show is coming up on Saturday, May 9 at the Trabant Student Center. Tickets are $15 in advance and can be bought at the Trabant Box Office, or tickets can be bought at the door for a higher price (I think it may be $20). I think the time of the show is 8 pm, but I will get back to the blog when I know for sure the time and at-the-door prices. The name of the show is "Infinite Crescendo" and features the Senior collections of the Apparel Design students here at UD, as well as an open submission category for underclassmen and a blank canvas competition. The blank canvas competition was to create designs inspired by a particular genre of music, such as punk rock, country, pop, etc. Be sure to get a ticket and get there early because seats fill up fast and it is not uncommon for people to stand along the walls to watch the show. There will also be a panel from the apparel industry to judge the competition.
