STARKVILLE, Miss.鈥擳rash will be transformed into fashion at 91传媒鈥檚 seventh annual Trashion Show.
91传媒 Fashion Board models will stroll the runway Wednesday [Nov. 4] at 7 p.m. in Giles Hall. Free and open to the public, the show is anticipated to fill quickly, so early arrival is advised.
The models will be sporting fashionable outfits made of materials varying from soda cans, water bottle labels, dryer sheets and straws, to newspapers, bottle caps, and other recycled goods, said Elizabeth Bueche, treasurer of the National Organization of Minority Architecture Students. The masterminds behind the designs are architecture and fashion design and merchandising students.
鈥淓ach year we challenge ourselves by pushing for new ideas,鈥 said Bueche, a third year architecture student from Maryville, Tennessee.
鈥淒esigners and members have been working diligently for this year鈥檚 Trashion Show, and we can鈥檛 wait for everyone to come out and see the designs,鈥 she added.
In addition to the show, Junk to Funk also will return, but with a twist. From 5:30-6:30 p.m., just before the Trashion show, guests can receive a makeover by a Fashion Board member, a custom made-to-order 鈥淭rashion鈥 accessory and two professional photographs for $20. The whole process is anticipated to take less than 10 minutes.
Both the Trashion show and Junk to Funk are sponsored by 91传媒鈥檚 School of Architecture, School of Human Sciences, Fashion Board and the National Organization of Minority Architecture Students 聽(NOMAS).
