Meet Sarah Hayden!
鈥淲hen I began the college search process as a transfer student, I knew I did not want to go into a big city to get a degree in fashion. I wanted to have a great college experience however, I still wanted to get a degree from a world-renowned program,鈥 said Sarah. Kent State was the right fit for Sarah鈥檚 goals. The School of Fashion requires students to study abroad, obtain internships and select a minor. These requirements give students the tools to succeed in their field.
The 2024 Annual Fashion Show featured 171 looks from 42 designers whose collections and single-submission garments were chosen by a panel of industry critics and jurors for inclusion in this year鈥檚 show. The collections and garments spanned all categories of fashion and include evening wear, market ready, universal design and more. With 24 students on the production team, a total of 215 students were involved in the show.
