FASHION AND RETAIL MANAGEMENT PROGRAM SET TO LAUNCH FIRST EVER SPRING 2011 COUTURE RUNWAY SHOW
WANDERLUST, a spring 2011 runway show to be held on December 1st, 2010 at The Defoors Art Center and Gallery, will be the first ever couture runway show production showcased by The Art Institute of Atlanta’s Fashion and Retail Management program.
WANDERLUST, A Journey of Timeless Obsession is based on the theme of indulgences and over-consumption of luxurious and glorified vices throughout history- sex, status, body image, alcohol, and technology, are all presented and set against an exotic and tropical background.
It is going to be a cohesion of seduction and fantasy. The students are "attempting to bring the standards of a Parisian Couture Fashion show to the Atlanta market by the next generation of Industry tastemakers”
The WANDERLUST fashion show is a charity event benefiting The Art Institute of Atlanta’s Scholarship Program to help aspiring artists develop the skills and education needed to succeed in the ever growing creative fields of fashion, graphic design and culinary arts.
The WANDERLUST evening will include a pre-show silent auction beginning at 7pm and admission to the show will be a $5 dollar donation to the AI scholarship fund.
The couture women’s and menswear collection to be debut at this event will be Autonomous by ChristianHarris.
Accompanying Autonomous by Christian Harris’s exquisite designs will be lavish jewelry and accessories graciously donated by W Hotels The Storeboutique in Midtown and hand crafted jewelry courtesy of designer Karmen Fairley for CAKE accessories.
The night’s musical entertainment will be provided by DJ tD of RARE FORM DJ Crew, and as a suitable close to WANDERLUST, all attendees are cordially invited to the event’s official after party which is being held at the glamorous lounge and nightclub WHISKEY PARK, located on the 3rd floor of The W Hotel in Midtown Atlanta.
