Central’s Fashion Design Club hosted their annual fall fashion show Thursday evening. Senior and co-president Sasha Walker put together an extraordinary show, giving it the theme of vibes.

In her first time putting the event together, she could only describe the process as “extremely stressful.” Some obstacles she faced while getting the show up and running was the exposure on campus, equipment needed and just practices for such an event.

Beyond having so many obstacles, the show seemed to thrive. The host for the show was Arayzon Brathwaite, a former Blue Devil, performer on Apollo night, widely known model, host and creator, not only in Connecticut but New York as well. Brathwaite kept the audience amused and engaged with their funny antics and engagement with the crowd.

The show modeled a number of different local brands including upraised, Joe Cruz and SKRS.

“Events like these are a good way to push their product out there for people who may not really know about it,” Ryan Sutherland, creator of SKRS, said.

Vibes were definitely prevalent during the show and the audience made sure the models heard it. There were a number of scenes that had the crowd roaring; two in mind were the nasty 1990’s theme and deconstruction.

The Nasty 90’s scene was conducted by none other than Walker herself, which included bright lights, 90’s music and 90’s vibrant inspired outfits. The other scene deconstruction conducted by junior Blair Isufi was inspired by Maison Margiela.

“The idea of mixing old patterns and fabrics to new ones gave me the name deconstruction,” Isufi said.

After the show concluded Walker was relieved, saying “it’s very stressful to have everyone come up to you for everything, but it [the show] turned out to be a great one.”

Model Sam Bryd, who is an exchange student from England, seemed to really enjoy his experience in his first fashion show.

“It’s crazy. It’s so much fun [and] it really gives a boost of confidence when you walk down that runway and everyone is screaming,” Bryd said.

He said it as a great opportunity to meet friends and be acquainted on campus.

Make sure to stay tuned for the spring semester’s fashion show; flyers will be in the Student Center at the beginning of the spring.
