This program was originally a website. Each webpage has been collected into the single pdf attached here. The list of designers and items (beginning on page 3 of the pdf) is followed by information about each designer and the concepts behind their designs (beginning on page 15 of the pdf). While the list of designers and items is numbered, the information about each designer and their designs is not, but it follows the same order. Not every designer/item has a section with additional information, however. This is followed by information about the "Super Six," the Fashion Show Coordination class (beginning on page 89 of the pdf). -
