AiFL 2007 Fashion Show:Theme: CULTURE SHOCK

2007-04-14T11:19:00.000-07:00

Our world is immense, fluid, and ever-changing. There are a multitude of different civilizations with their own characteristics and attitudes that create a rainbow of cultures. As individuals, we treasure the customs, beliefs, and values that our own cultures impart upon us. As a society, we sometimes find ourselves startled and amazed by the ideals and customs of other nations.

Prepare to immerse yourself in a world unlike any other… the world of fashion, where in is suddenly out and the whole universe can be turned upside down on a moment’s notice. Drown your senses in a kaleidoscope of cultural diversity and experience the electricity that our student and alumni designers create through their unique designs. Come and join us for an evening of shock and awe as we celebrate the diversity of our universe through the most exciting culture of all: the culture of fashion!
