The event featured collections from ten student designers inspired by UMFA exhibition from Bierstadt to Warhol: American Indians in The West.

“This was a wonderful event that showcased the students’ many talents and the quality of the Fashion Institute,” SLCC Fashion Institute director Mojdeh Sakaki.

“I am so proud of all of the students. They worked tremendously hard in creating their collection and each one of them are phenomenal and exceptional.”

The fashion show was produced entirely by SLCC’s fashion production class. The event featured live musical performances and a series of runway shows.

Some proceeds from the show were donated to the Utah Cultural Celebration Center.
