Wave last season’s trends goodbye. With a “wave” themed fashion show hosted by Fashion Club coming soon, students are working to have their visions come alive.

Fashion teacher Arline Pryor, says that “as the second year of fashion club, we are trying to promote fashion and make people aware that design is everywhere and can be made from anything.”

Pryor is creating a new vision on campus by supporting her kids in their fashion choices and helping them design out-of-the-box clothes to show their personalities.

President Kennedi Fort, who has been in fashion club both years, agrees that the club moral is “to let people bounce off the wall with their ideas and have a comfortable place to pursue passions of fashion.”

With the fashion show coming up at the beginning of the year, students from both the club and the fashion classes have been creating new ideas and collections to debut. Co-president Sarah Abdallah, shares that “we have to sew all of our clothes in our collection except one piece of clothing that we are allowed to upcycle.”

By forcing students to design their own clothes by hand, they are taught skills to use outside of high school that will benefit them in future jobs. To see all of these collections firsthand, attend next semester’s fashion show on Fri. April  6. Sea you there!
