Indigo Harris - Capstone

For my senior project which is also called a Capstone, my partner and I decided to throw a SLA @ Beeber's first fashion show! As you can imagine it was both exciting and stressing being as though we are both 18 years old with outside of school responsibility we had to tend to but overall we got the job done. We did a "blast from the past" fashion show covering different ears such as 80's , 90's Afrocentric and Present day. Both the Afrocentric and Present day clothes were designed by SLA students.The first three months were strictly fundraising , we did bake sales , waterice sale , hot dog, chip and soda combo's . All to raise the money to fund the clothes the model would be wearing in the show and to fund other things for this production , The next month around February we began our tryouts and starting practices for the show. We did photo shoots to create flyers to advertise the show and me being the present day designer, I began to work on my pieces that would be in the show. We partnered with another student Jason Prez and got him to record the show so we could have not only pictures but a video of what we put together. We had to do research on what the clothes looked like at the time, we to create a estimated price range etc. This fashion show was far from easy, it took so much hard work but it all paid off in the end.
