Project Earth Day Fashion Show!

Had a blast at the Project Earth Day Fashion Show tonight and it’s late, but in a word, it was VIVACIOUS! Lots of fun looks and more than a few I can see myself wearing. So here are all the student’s competition looks. I’ll update over the weekend with who’s designed what and also upload the professional’s show, which followed the students’. Can you believe these colorful, fabulous togs are all made from ecofriendly fabrics? Love it!
