And the winner is...

A unique competition sponsored by Cotton Inc. allowed 15 talented FIDM students to showcase their skills in textile and fashion design. The challenge was to think outside the box and create an innovative gown made purely of cotton material. After months of textile research and fabric testing, the remaining 5 finalists made their stance for the final judging which took place on September 3rd at the LA campus.

The FIDM Life team would like to honor and congratulate Andres Alves, Textile Design Major, for winning to Grand Prize of $10,000!! What a scholarship! Thank you Cotton Inc.

A picture of the winning gown will be posted once I can get my hands on one...
