Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Lincoln Center | Academy of Art University...



Today, I just want to share a video of the graduate student collections from the Academy of Art University.  The students show each season during fashion week in New York.  I think most of these collections have something very unique to show.  My favorites, of course, are the knitwear collections of my friends Stephanie Gelot (layers and layers of knit "prints" with big chunky scarfs) and Jonathan Baker (chunky knits with fur trims).  Both Stephanie and Jonathan are incredibly talented.  Stephanie is a master at getting amazing textures out of a simple flat bed or double bed knitting machine.  Jonathon does amazing chunky hand knits but brings in unusual textures by knitting with strips of chiffon or fur or other non-traditional knitting materials.
