While international Fashion Month comes to a close, College Fashion Week, Her Campus’s premiere collegiette fashion tour, had its official kickoff show on October 5th at the University of Central Florida in Orlando, Florida!
College Fashion Week was developed to showcase collegiate fashion trends from all over the country as well as unique ways for collegiettes to dress up their daily attire. The official independent clothing sponsor of College Fashion Week, UsTrendy, provided fabulous clothes for the show. The show also featured clothing from Bongo Jeans, Material Girl, Candie’s, OP, Rampage, Category 5 Boat Shoes, Lilly Pulitzer, OUTSPOKKEN, adidas and Henri Girl Boutique as well as jewelry from Armed & Readi. In Style Hair kept our models looking gorgeous by doing their hair and makeup (provided by CoverGirl)!
But it wasn’t just the fashion at the show that was amazing! Samsonite, the official luggage sponsor of College Fashion Week, showcased the latest trends in luggage, and neuro, the official beverage sponsor of CFW, provided neuro SONIC, which kept everyone energized throughout the show. Poppin, the official dorm décor and furniture sponsor, provided swag for the VIP goody bags as well as showcased their colorful work style products on the runway. Poppin also had a “Best Dressed Desk” competition where one lucky participant won desk accessories of her choice by dressing her dream Poppin desk and posting a photo to Instagram with the hashtag #playdressup!
This year’s theme, “A Day in the Life of a Collegiette,” translated into four clothing categories based on the daily activities of college students. The Orlando scenes were called “You Snooze You Lose” (lounge and workout wear), “Go to Class? I Am Class” (class wear), “Soak Up the Sun” (beach attire) and “We Can’t Stop” (looks for a night out).
