Fashion Show: Tapestry

The fashion industry is one of the leading industries that damage the environment the most. The Fashion Design and Merchandising students at Villa Maria College understand the disastrous impact the industry has had thus far. Justice and Peace are core values of the college and we intend on embracing the notion of recreating a sustainable environment, and promoting the common good. The 2020 fashion show will be showcasing the graduating merchandising senior’s perspective on how we can influence future fashion students to make conscious decisions. The show will be composed of second hand garments from local thrift and consignment stores, along with original work from our sophomores and juniors in the program. These garments will fit the theme of Tapestry which is an aesthetic of the 70’s and 80’s while also staying current with the UMB Fashion Snoop SS20 trend concepts.
