EXPLORING FASHION IN PARIS DIALOGUE
summer 2022
In the summer of 2022, I studied abroad on a 5 week program in Paris while taking 2 classes for my Fashion Minor. The immersive experience of learning about the history of fashion in one of the capital fashion cities in the world was incredible. From our in class lectures, to the museum and gallery visits, to simply walking the streets and taking in the history around us, I learned so much and deepened my love for the industry.
paris Trend Guide
In our Trend Forecasting class taught by Parisian Designer and professor at Parsons Paris Eros Antoniadis, our cumulative project was to create a visual trend guide of 3 different arrondissements of Paris. These trend guides not only took an in depth look into the emerging fashion trends in Paris, but also trends in food, architecture, lifestyle, etc.
Blog site
Over the course of the 5 week program, we created a blog showcasing our experiences abroad in Paris. We had several assigned blogposts that allowed us to engage with our peers, fashion exhibits, creative expression through writing and photography, and the city or Paris itself. It was also a place for us to look back on our time through a fashion focused lens.
