The clock strikes 11:50 AM and you see a herd of girls, HUNDREDS of them, burst through the doors. It’s them. The fashion majors. And while you’re swimming upstream through the sea of students, you overhear our conversations about our trend reports due Tuesday or our next fabric swatch run to Joann’s. We’re those girls outside taking pictures for our blogs and probably the reason Kent State is 61% female. We’re those people wearing a 10/10 outfit at a 7:45 AM Monday class. We come in all shapes, sizes, creative mindsets, shoe preferences, and hair colors. We’re real-life Bratz dolls with a passion for fashion. And if you’re one of us, you know you’re proud to be a fashion major because you love what you do, and you can fully relate to the 15 signs you’re a fashion student at Kent State.
I measured every perfect 1 x 1 color swatch and retraced the flat of that cut-out dress about 50 times (down to the the lace detail!!!) It’s not just a poster, it’s a masterpiece. And I’m hanging it on my wall for everyone to see.
Okay. I spent two hours on one flower out of the three flowers on my half drop pattern. Three more patterns, four garments, and four models to go. Wait, why are my eyes hurting? I need to dim the screen’s brightness down. Oh it’s already at zero percent…
I’ve been to five or six model calls, even tho I’m only 5’2. There’s still hope right? I just have to work on my walk.
Ugh, that extra guilt if you don’t look nice for class. Everyone’s slaying today and I’m a potato in an Adidas hat, calling my look “street style.” Oh well.
I should save my jeans for tomorrow because it’s going to be so windy, and the fabric construction of wovens are more wind resistant than these knitted leggings.
You can stare as long as you want, just make sure you check out the final poses I picked on my fashion blog later!
So the new trend is sherpa lined denim jackets? But I just dropped $50 on this satin bomber…..
Okay that’s an exaggeration. BUT. The marble. The hues. The aesthetic. The natural light. You can’t deny it’s beautiful. I’m in love.
Out the 300 people in my lecture hall, there were maybe less than 10 boys. And most of then are gay. I forget other men go to school here until I go to one of my gen ed classes or the gym.
The only fancy thing about my outfit is my cardigan just because it’s extra long, it took me two seconds to put on this ribbon choker, and I was already wearing my superstars!!!
He recently sent out an email about International Women’s Day, calling us inspirations and complimenting our potential. What a gem. We love you William!
Obviously, a lot of my friends are fashion majors, but that doesn’t mean that I can read all the new articles they put up!
Ah yes, a reminder of why I do what I do. These concepts are amazing. These shows truly give me life. God bless everyone’s creativity.
So I’ll be on campus this spring, but I think I’m gonna try to get a marketing internship in Portland this summer. Then I’ll be studying in NYC in the fall and in Italy next spring. After that, I guess I should get another NYC internship for more experience…My dad invested in a box wheeler to facilitate this process.
Yes, it is actually a thing. And yes, I’ll style you…only if you fund my wardrobe too. I gotta feel good to make you look good right? And to feel good, I gotta look good. You feel?
