FASHION SHOW<br />

Each year, New England’s best interior design firms and schools<br />

team up with industry manufacturers to create and model oneof-a-kind<br />

fashions exclusively fabricated from tools of their trade<br />

- carpet, wall coverings, tile, lighting and more! They compete for<br />

cheers, awards and bragging rights. It’s one of the most amazing<br />

displays of creativity in the city, an unforgettable experience, and<br />

one of the hardest tickets to come by.<br />

Event location: Boston Convention and Exhibition Center<br />

Number of attendees at event: 1700 Seated guests, 23 Teams<br />

Charity supported: Youth Build Boston<br />

Funniest moment of the event (that we can all laugh about now!):<br />

Co-host Allison was pregnant and delivered her baby during peak<br />

fashion show planning season. Final floor plans for the ballroom<br />

layout were completed in the hospital postnatal ward.<br />

How does your committee plan to grow in the upcoming<br />

year?<br />

Every year the fashion show committee strives to plan a<br />

bigger and better show than the year prior. We aim for new<br />

design firms to get involved, include awesome judges, and<br />

reach our livestream broadcast to more viewers.<br />

What was your biggest success of this past year?<br />

We once again brought the largest fashion show to date<br />

to our guests.<br />
