Festival of Arts Fashion Show

As part of the Festival of Arts, freshman design students in UL Lafayette's School of Architecture and Design present a runway show of their fashion creations, Monday, March 11, 6:30 p.m., at the AcA.

But this is no ordinary fashion show, and many of the students have never created clothing before. UL Lafayette's design faculty ask their students to create wearable work that they have designed and built out of found material, like plastics or bottle tops. The goal is unfettered creativity, the sky is the limit! Admission: $10 at the door.
