What We Do

Melissa:
This collection was based on jellyfish aka Cnidaria Scyphozoa Aurelia.  It is a Spring ready-to-wear collection, I was inspired by the whimsey, color, and gracefulness of the jellyfish.  I tried to translate these aspects into the designs and the overall look of my woman.  The mediums are watercolor and Photoshop.




Aubrey: The pictures below are two separate collections, the first being for a contest inspired by New York and the second is a collection inspired by the image of a moth for a sustainable collection. The first collection, Connected, is about the idea of "the dream", this is what a person is trying to connect to when the come to the Big Apple. You, our dear readers, can look forward to more from this collection because I am been made a finalist in an amazing competition for Elle magazine. The mediums are watercolor and Photoshop.




So for months we have been telling you all that we are fashion design students but giving you nothing to back that up. Well finally... Here's proof! We decided to share a few of our drawings from the past year. Hope you like them:)

This Saturday afternoon we had a little school spirit (go FIT!) and attended our schools block party "Cinco de MyFIT". Cheesy, right? However, we love it. Free food, a chance to make our own lip gloss, and hang out with our fashionable peers made for a great afternoon.

How did you all spend your Cinco de Mayo? Hope it was filled with Margaritas and mexican songs such as La Cucaracha! Oh the fun we have dancing and singing along to that.

We wish you all a fantastic week. We love you all!
