This season the Academy of Art University presented their Spring and Fall 2018 Mens and collection. The students and designers showcased five womenwear and two menswear collection. Also two of the collection are collaborative efforts.
Every season, I make it my business to attend AAU due to the fact this show helps launch most of the students fashion careers. It is so great that New York and NYFW, is their platform for the tomorrow.
As I was back stage, I was able to see the maturity and humility of these young students. As I saw the collection both back stage and on the main stage, I was able to feel and see each designer personal spirit in the collection. As well as how each piece in the collection showcase some of the designer own unique identity. The students stayed true to their vision as well as push their creative process.
The first designer was Hailun Zhou.: This collection was inspired by her personal photographs she took for anther class.I always love when and how one class helps another class.
