Rhode Island School of Design is among the schools that showcased their seniors’ work on the runway

Twelve aspiring designers examined a variety of themes, from disgust and desire, masculinity and femininity to post-apocalyptic worlds. 

RISD alum Jack Sivan started his namesake men’s wear business after freelancing for luxury labels like the Row.

Using traditional tools and materials, each student is turning a 2D pattern into functional 3D footwear perfect for the rodeo or the everyday.
