Signature Event: Fashion Without Fabric
Most fashion shows start with a bolt of cloth. This one starts with a constraint—and ends with a runway.
Each year, UW-Stout Polytechnic's Fashion Without Fabric runway show challenges hundreds of first-year students in the School of Art & Design to design and build wearable garments using anything and everything but fabric. And they only have three weeks to wow the judges and a sold out crowd. The results? Ball gowns made from vinyl records, suits made from bottle cap suits, coffee filter casual-wear, and so much more.
Fashion Without Fabric isn't just a signature event. It's what a polytechnic education looks like from the front row.
