The Art Institute of New York Debuts Student Designers

Welcome to Project Runway, where contestants will compete for a chance to show their collections at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week.

But wait. This isn’t Project Runway. Instead The Art Institute of New York City  gave 10 students/alumni one of the most incredible opportunities that a designer can ever achieve—and that is to show their collections at one of the most prestigious and high profiled fashion events—Mercedes Benz Fashion Week. Students showed their work to fellow peers, potential employers, and me.

Click on the video for full coverage– or see my slideshow below with some of the looks. There is a large range of different styles amongst each individual which made it exciting to see new, different aesthetics.
