THREADS WITH IMPACT (Sustainable fashion show photo gallery)

Style met substance on Feb. 25 as Wear It Forward transformed campus into a runway with a mission. Students from the Theatre Costume Design class reimagined clothing pieces from Wolverine Essentials for 12 volunteer models from across campus and the Flint community who brought the looks to life. The show capped off Common Read Week and followed author Maxine Bédat's keynote, turning the ideas explored in her book, "Unraveled," into something visible and wearable.
