Designer Amie Denisova, right, and model Tanya Deniva are nearly ready for “A Black and White Affair,” the annual show from the Student Fashion Association.
Sacramento State’s University Union Ballroom will become the focus of fashion when nine student designers display their work in “A Black and White Affair,” the annual show sponsored by the Student Fashion Association.
The gala night begins at 7:15 p.m., Tuesday, May 15, with 35 models taking to the runway to show off the designers’ creations. VIP tickets are $25, which includes an after-show reception. General admission is $10, and student tickets are $5. All ticket prices will go up $2 when sold at the door. They may be purchased in advance by calling (209) 609-6073 or visiting SacStateFashionistas@gmail.com .
Proceeds will benefit the Sacramento Children’s Home.
Participants in the show are mostly seniors in the design program, “but any student designer is welcome to present their work,” said Professor Mary Botkin, family and consumer services professor.
Designs cover a broad range of styles, depending on the designer’s inspiration. Sometimes the outfits are casual wear, T-shirts and jeans. Other designers focus on men’s wear while still others create formal attire, Botkin said.
The program is coordinated entirely by the students, who handle all aspects of staging the show.
The Student Fashion Association began five years ago to promote local designers and the apparel marketing and design major at Sacramento State.
