LVMH + Parsons Dream Teams

general-artisanCongratulations to all the students, faculty and artisans who participated in The Art of Craftsmanship Revisited, introduced during New York Fashion Week, 2010.

Fashion Design and AMT (Art, Media & Technology) students worked together with New York area selected artisans, to create both finished garments and documentaries inspired by the artisans work. The big event, held on February 17, 2010, was attended by a veritable who’s who crowd including fashion celebs, Parsons faculty and administration as well as the hard working students, all dressed to impress.

Thank you to all the media outlets for supporting this unique challenge and again, congratulations to all who participated!
