Our Annual Fashion Show is always an amazing event and this year's show may prove to be the best yet. Please join us to see the collections and creations of both undergraduate and graduate Fashion Design students at Fashion '16 on Saturday, June 4th at the beautiful URBN Outfitters Headquarters (5000 South Broad Street). Tickets are still available for the 4pm, and for the 8pm show which includes also a wine and cheese reception.

The show, produced and managed by Design & Merchandising (D&M) students, will feature full collections by 20 senior and graduate Fashion Design students, as well as select designs from other students in the program. Students in our Music Industry program are creating print and digital content, and Drexel's television station (DUTV) will produce the video of the entire show. Click here to see this year's version of the D&M Magazine, the award-winning lifestyle magazine created by D&M and other Design Department students.

From Alice in Wonderland to African animals, the diverse inspirations and use of unique fabric manipulation can be seen through intricate beading, felting, and dying. Audiences will witness forward thinking design with an eye to the past, as King Henry VIII inspired garments captivate the runway and metallic, fur robes take you to another realm

Both the Drexel Design & Merchandising and Fashion Design programs are highly ranked around the world. Tickets for Fashion '16 are still available online and at select locations. For more information, please call 215-895-2390 or visit www.drexel.edu/westphal.
