The Academy of Art University had their Spring show last week where a select number of chosen graduate students sent their collections down the runway. It was held at the historical Cannery in San Francisco – a brick warehouse at Fisherman’s Wharf that was long ago converted into three levels of winding walkways, balconies and bridges surrounding a courtyard. Perfect for a fashion show. The evening’s guest of honors were; Philip Treacy, Sarah Burton, and Your Royal Highness Princess Reema Al-Saud. Other notable guests were Suzy Menkes, Fashion Editor of the International Herald Tribune, Cathy Horyn, fashion critic of the New York Times and Stephan Rahim Rabimov, Editor-in-Chief of Depesha magazine. This is by far one of the best shows to attend in San Francisco and certainly one of the most talked about events in the San Francisco fashion community.
Visit The Academy of Art University blog Fashion School Daily to find out more about the show and the designers featured. Below are a few of my favorite looks from the evening. I’m loving how wearable all of these looks are – beautifully tailored separates with thoughtful detailing, dresses that show movement, subtle prints, and sumptuous knits. A big congratulations to the designers and the school for putting on such a great show! I hope we see a lot more where this came from!!
