Through the Decades Fashion Show.

Models after the Through the Decades Fashion Show.



Last Friday, September 10th, I had the privilege of sitting front-row at the Through the Decades Fashion Show at the Art Museum of Austin. Presented by the Art Institute of Austin's Event and Fashion Show Production Class of 2010, the show was comprised of 22 looks that spanned of a fashion timeline from the early 1900s to present day and beyond.



Before the show, I enjoyed delicious food provided by the culinary students from the Art Institute while listening to local band The FreeFlow.



Absolutely delish!

The FreeFlow played a medley of Bob Marley hits.


The show began at 7:30, and it was an absolute delight to be sitting in the front-row. As a definitive restrospect, the show was impressive, especially since the students only had 9 weeks to organize the event. Their hard work paid off, as I felt like I had gone on a journey through a fashion time capsule.
