https://massart.edu/fashionshowMassachusetts College for Art and Design is hosting its first in-person fashion show since 2019 on Saturday, May 14.
The show — entitled “404 Not Found” — features the work of 21 graduating seniors from MassArt. MassArt said their work deals with themes such as gender identity and grief.
MassArt is hosting two of the shows at 5:30 p.m. and 8 p.m. at the campus’ Design and Media Center.
“Through my collection, I focus on using the traditional color of mourning, black, while also implementing a printed fabric full of color and messaging to exhibit the journey through grief and growth and how both can co-exist,” senior Sabrina Hollander wrote about her collection, “In Memory Of…”

“Lost in Translation is a narrative ready to wear collection based on the experiences as a transmasculine individual,” Izzy DeSmet wrote about his collection “Lost in Translation.” “To convey the emotional and physical stages of transitioning I used shapes inspired by Henri Matisse’s cut out shapes of the human figure as well as texture manipulation.”
