Staging a fashion show is daunting under normal circumstances but doing so during the shutdown opened up new possibilities for some Lynn University students.
While several designers in the European Union have embraced the phygital for a show or presentation — Balenciaga’s Demna Gvasalia being among them — that has not yet been the case with fashion schools in the U.S. The virtual show will involve holograms, 3D mapping and other futuristic effects. It will explore four realms — Eco-Craft, Sea of Reality, Kaleidoscope and Re-Imagined.Through an alliance with the U.K.
The “Surreal” effort brings together two schools at Lynn — the College of Business and Management and the College of Communication and Design. Referring to the latter, Burnstine said, “Those professors are also artisans. They do game design, digital and so forth. The students know the fashion and marketing but they don’t know the virtual and the animation. We’ve filmed and mapped each model. We’re not calling it an avatar.
Other circus-inspired designs by Kastenberg, Christian Francis Roth and Zang Toi that were made for a museum benefit years ago will be featured in the Kaleidoscope realm of “Surreal.” A model will also wear Burnstine’s Bob Mackie-designed multicolored clown costume with diamond-shaped tails.
