The Look: TAPP Expo 2008
 |
The
Student Design Show is
the annual highlight of our academic program
and serves as a culmination of a year's work for Textile and Apparel
students. The apparel items
viewed during the show are created by students and approved by jury
before being exhibited. The actual planning,
promotion, choreography, music and execution of the show is also done
entirely by students with the guidance of faculty.
Since our program has a distinct focus on product development, the energy
and creativity that goes into the annual design show is central to
our program's mission!
