2010 Graduates Collection
Monday, April 26

Renowned hairstylist Laurent Dufourg and internationally known makeup artist Sue Devitt have signed on to contribute services and products to the Fashion Institute of Technology’s annual professionally produced runway show, at which top graduating design students showcase an array of fashion-forward garments.

The Future of Fashion will be revealed on Monday, April 26, 2010, at two shows, one at 4:30 pm and the second at 7:30 pm. A VIP reception will take place between shows.

Dufourg will provide more than a dozen stylists, along with Privé products, to shape hairstyles for the models who will walk the runway. Devitt will send more than a dozen makeup artists, along with her products, to do the models’ makeup. Both are contributing products for the audience gift bags.

The Future of Fashion will present sportswear, special occasion, knitwear, intimate apparel, menswear, and children’s wear designed for fall 2010.
