Spectrum News 1 - College Student's Collection to Hit Runway During Fashion Week Columbus
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Columbus ranks third in the nation behind New York and L.A. for the number of resident designers it has.
A CCAD student landed a spot on the runway during Fashion Week Columbus
She is the first student designer to have a collection hit the runway
Fashion Week Columbus is October 13-19
And now, one more will make their debut during Fashion Week Columbus as the first student designer to have a collection hit the runway.
As Tracy Powell presses out the wrinkles in her free-flowing black dress, she counts down the days until Fashion Week Columbus.
Showing her collection during the finale show isn't something she thought would have happened so soon. After all she's a student at the Columbus College of Art and Design, and typically students aren't selected to show their work at such an event — but she's the first.
"I was elated,” said Powell.
