Our designers are some of the most talented students in the Fashion Program. They've developed their design skills and have made it into the Collection Design and Production class, where they must create all of their original garments to industry standards, using the highest quality fitting techniques with fashion fabrics in the latest trend.

“As the models and designers made their final journey across the catwalk, I found myself wanting more. The event is a must-see for anyone who has an appreciation for fashion and fresh young talent.” ~Karen Bakhtegan, Editor, San Joaquin Woman Magazine

2017 Designers
Our models volunteer their time to the show and come from all over. Most have never modeled before and come from the SJDC Fashion classes. They are chosen based on criteria established by each designer to fit in with the designer's aesthetic and muse concept. We are thrilled that many models that we have discovered have gone on to have success in the industry, in part, from the design and styling choices made for them and the amazing photography from our volunteer photographers!
