High school seniors turn Goodwill store into a Fiesta-themed fashion show
Rachel Cruz walks in the Fiesta Sustainable Fashion Show on Wednesday. Stevens High School students design their own garments and volunteer at a Goodwill store to learn about retail. A Goodwill store on the far West Side was transformed this week by high school seniors showcasing their fashion design work — sustainable design, because the brightly colored outfits were curated and altered from donated clothes found there.
The seniors behind the show are part of Stevens High School’s entrepreneurship and fashion program. They’re learning about marketing, display design, customer service and fashion curation because they dream of not just working in fashion but owning a fashion-related business.“Fashion is a way to express yourself,” said Che’ron Brown, a senior at Stevens, in the Northside Independent School District.
At Goodwill each week, the students find outfits for the mannequins, design the endcaps, greet customers, and learn about how Goodwill is run as a business.
