Word on the Street is 'Inspiration'

Fri, Apr 15th, 2011

It's a fashion month of sorts at Pratt.

The Fashion Design Department in collaboration with the Graduate Communications Department is creating a wall mural as part of preparations for the Annual Pratt Fashion Show.

Pratt Fashion students came up with the word 'Inspiration' as the theme of this year's show.

Photo above is of artist, Anthony Acock [Grad CommD student]). He will create the mural and use the footage as part of a video installation that will be shown in the main entrance to the Fashion Show.

The Pratt Fashion Show will be held April 27th at the Metropolitan Pavilion in Manhattan and is a major event at Pratt. This year the show is a celebration of Pratt's Brooklyn roots and will honor Hamish Bowles, editor-at-large of Vogue Magazine.

The mural (on the southeast corner of Hall Street, just off of Myrtle Avenue) will be up throughout the month of April.
