TEACHER COMMENTS

Tyrena Chin:

The generosity of the FIDM grant was quite impressive. Being our first field trip to a fashion show, we did not realize how professional the show was. We did not expect the school to be so cozy. The girls were really inspired by the show.

Juliet Fry:

I was very impressed by how professional everything was. The fashion show was so much better than I imagined it would be. The tour was interesting... the FIDM campus seems very modern and comfortable and is located in a fun area. I did not expect the fashion show to be so entertaining and inspiring. I think our students came away with a lot of ideas for their own show.
