Post-fire, Parsons MFA Fashion Graduate Exhibit Sizzles

10 weeks ago an electrical fire in Parsons School of Design’s W 13th St location caused the displacement of the entire MFA Fashion Design & Society department. Within a week, the program director, Shelley Fox, and associate director, Joff Moolhuizen, had rehoused the program inside Brooklyn’s Industry City. For the show must always go on. Indeed despite the extraordinary upheaval, 15 MFA students are exhibiting sketchbooks, textiles, portfolios, and a selection of completed garments from their final collection for 3 days this week as a taster of what’s to come on September’s runway.
