Two of the emerging designers were May 09 Lasell graduates: Crystal Noe and Emily Hancock.
We were so proud!
I had the most delightful surprise to find that Keith Lissner, the featured designer who had been on Bravo's The Fashion Show with Isaac Mizrahi, was one of the students when I was the Chair of the Fashion Department at IADT Chicago!
His eveningwear line reflected draping inspiration from Mme. Gres - he's right on target. His line was as elegant and charming as his personality.
Keith Lissner is one to watch - he's going places!
Professor Ruppert:
ReplyDeleteWhile searching the web, I came across your blog! What a nice surprise! I'm so glad that you enjoyed Emerging Trends and I hope that you will continue your involvement in the future. I never personally got to thank you for all of your guidance and cooperation that went into the event. I am truly grateful for all that you have done, and I feel blessed that you took the time to work with us. For future events, I hope that we can continue a partnership with Lasell, along with a continuance of Lasell student volunteers. I was sad that I did not get to see you and chat the night of the event, however knowing that you were there was a wonderful feeling. In the future, I look forward to seeing other professors, alumni, and students of Lasell's fashion program at Emerging Trends. On behalf of everyone evolved in the event, THANK YOU!
Sincerely,
Erin Tremblay
