FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – This year’s Enclothe: Timeless fashion show will feature some stylistic and technical pieces. The fashion show brings apparel merchandising, product development majors and the engineering department together to make one-of-a-kind outfits.
Lexie Benton, Senior Apparel Major and an artist, created a product that is made from recycled vinyls and LED lights operated by a battery. The idea just came to her one day while she was sketching different designs, said Benton. The raincoat she made is clear and meant to cover other clothing.
This annual spring show will be held at 8 p.m. Thursday, April 12, in the Fayetteville Towns Center. It is too late to purchase a ticket before the show, but any unsold tickets will be available at the door for $50.
