RUNWAY: Academy of Art University Fall/Winter 2010

Edited by Annabelle Cheesecake, Parisian Princess

Yesterday I was the lucky one, I went backstage with the Academy of Art University ‘s crew. This year, 6 designers  presented their womenswear collections from their fashion, knitwear, technical, and textile design programs.

My favorite was Sabah Mansoor’s collection, she used felted merino wool, felted alpaca wool, mohair and some amazing crystals. The jewel details added to her black and charcoal collection looked really GREAT.
