The fashion show will feature custom-made ensembles for each of the eight winners designed by emerging talent from the acclaimed Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) in New York.
"FIT is proud to be participating in the Addressing Psoriasis Fashion Show, which we feel will provide our students an invaluable design experience that is tied to an important cause," said Eileen Karp, assistant professor and contest coordinator for Fashion Design at FIT. "Our students are designing unique outfits for each of the winners that are comfortable and representative of their individual fashion choices. Psoriasis is a disease that can inhibit self-confidence in personal style, and FIT is an institution that celebrates self-expression through fashion - in our eyes, there could be no better match!"
