Annual Student Fashion Show Returns To El Camino College

From El Camino College: El Camino College will sponsor its 35th Annual Student Fashion Show on June 2 in Marsee Auditorium. The event begins with a drawing and reception at 7 p.m.; the fashion show begins at 7:30 p.m.

This year’s show, “SOL,” will feature student designs modeled by El Camino College students, friends and family on the runway.

“SOL” is a student-produced fashion show created by students in Fashion 44, Fashion Show Production and Promotions class. To produce the show, students are divided into six committees: design, merchandising, modeling, promotion, finance/secretary, and staging. Students learn event planning principles and produce the fashion show as their final project.

In the ECC fashion program, students learn about clothing, construction, fashion illustration, pattern making, draping, computer-aided fashion design and manufacturing. Through merchandising classes, students learn about presentation techniques, planning, promotion, fashion coordination, advertising, and sales.

Tickets to the “SOL” fashion show are $8 presale and $12 at the door. Advance sale tickets are available at the Marsee Auditorium Ticket Office, open Monday through Friday 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Campus parking is $3.

Proceeds will be used to fund next year’s fashion show and for a scholarship that will be awarded to one up-and-coming area high school student. For more information, contact Vera Ashley at vbruce@elcamino.edu or 310-660-3593, ext. 3346.
