A Story of Fashion is a three-part event that will begin with Part One: A Fashion Exhibit. This annual event is a showcase of student work in the areas of Fashion Design, Fashion Merchandising and Interior Design.
Students will display their talents and creativity in specific work such as fashion design, accessory design, fashion illustration, fashion advertising, cultural and ethnic costume, visual merchandising, and interior design. The Exhibit will be held on Thursday evening, May 8 from 5 to 7 p.m. in Danner Hall on the Delta College Campus that is located on 5151 Pacific Ave. in Stockton.
This year's exhibit will also feature entries from a unique fashion design competition: a competition using a basic white T-shirt and a lot of creativity. Students will have taken ordinary white T-shirts and redesigned them into a variety of things, from fashionable tops to skirts to handbags and bikinis.
The garments from this competition will be judged by the public attending that night. Winners of this competition will receive cash scholarships.
Attendees can also enter to win a variety of fun packaged items, including spa days, dinners out, sports tickets, tickets to area events like the Zin Fest, home and interior design items, and an iPod.
Donations for these packages have been provided by Stockton businesses Macaroni Grill, Ciao Bella Restaurant, Stockton Lightning football, the Stockton Arena, Prime Shine Express Car Wash, Cocoro, Taste of Brittney, House of Shaw, Manny's Pacific Fresh, Alder Bistro, Frames and Fine Things, In-Shape City, With Garden Flair, BJ's and Elephant Bar Restaurants, Delicato Vineyards, and The Party Guys and businesses in Lodi PDC Boutique, Salon 101, Twin Arbors Athletic Club and the Lodi Wine and Visitors Center.
In addition to the exhibited displays, attendees will have the opportunity to talk with the student designers, view information about the Fashion and Interiors programs at Delta, and learn more about a variety of creations from both current students, as well as students who are now working in the fashion and interiors industries.
Refreshments will be served, thanks to Starbuck's and Delta College's Artisan Bakers. Music will be played throughout the evening. There is no admission charge and the event is open to anyone interested in attending. For more information call 209.954.5573.
