FFC Wrap-Up

Another Fashion Focus Chicago has come and gone and behind the lights, clothes, and leggy models were Columbia College students. Yes, those tents were not only filled with Chicago fashionistas but also with the fashionistas of tomorrow from Columbia.


This year the CCFA was again able to provide students with contacts to get in touch with show producers and volunteer. Lots of students took advantage of this and were able to gain experience and a front row seat to the best fashion shows in Chicago. 

Here is a sneak peak into what these volunteers were able to see and experience first-hand.

One of the benefits of being a CCFA member is being able to have a resource to the right contacts to get involved in the fashion industry. Attending events around Chicago is a great way to not only gain experience and contacts but also to be inspired by the Chicago fashion scene.
