Seattle Central College’s School of Apparel Design & Development will present its 36th annual apparel design fashion exhibition on Tuesday, June 16. Titled “Turning Corners,” the event will feature 26 collections and portfolios showcasing the creative vision of the 2015 graduating class. It will take place throughout the day and is free and open to the public.

Each student in the program produces a collection in just 11 weeks, from the design of concepts to the construction of final garments. A gallery of individual vignettes will showcase lines of sportswear, resort clothing, couture styles, and outerwear and will highlight graduate design portfolios showing work from two years of study.
