The Class 2016 of Fashion Design and Merchandising of De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde recently staged its graduation presentation, highlighted by an exhibit, and showcased its annual runway production. The three-day event, dubbed “Sinulid: The Threads of Design,” was held at the SM Aura Premier.
The graduates displayed their works in pop-up stalls, which while taking into consideration their target market, presented their very own design aesthetic. This enabled them to experience firsthand the demands of shoppers, as well as prepare them for their careers as fashion buyers, merchandisers and entrepreneurs. A Styling exhibit likewise focused on their ability to meet the current requests for personal imaging consultants.
The fashion show, on the other hand, revealed the pool of talent at Benilde as they unveiled collections ranging from classic to avant-garde, ready-to-wear to bespoke, and daywear to eveningwear.
