Photoshoot: SAVE TXC

Purpose: Faced with budget cuts, the Division of Textiles & Clothing is expected to close. While others are protesting, a handful of Textiles & Clothing students have a photoshoot to get their message across.

Style: Color motif was black, white, and turquoise. Photoshoot taken November 2009.

Assisted with styling the models, setting up the background, and directed the photographer on different ways to shoot.

For this shot, I took a random decoration (paper tissue flower) and
adjusted the model to seem very dainty and sophisticated.
I asked the photographer to take the shot in black and white.
Additionally, I had the model prop her leg up and
adjusted the skirt so the message stood out.
Simple, sophisticated, yet powerful.

The clothing in the background has significance:
all items are related to the TXC department
The wild fire jacket, naval air suit, and medical gown
have all been developed by TXC professors from
their research in their fields.
The dress, top, and backpack from BEBE, BCBG, &
The North Face (respectively) all hire our alum.
The shirt is meant for the present, and that
without the preceding items, it would be difficult
to sustain an apparel industry

Had model wear black slacks, minimal yet blingy jewelry.
Also turned around tank top.
