MISSIONArt 2 Wear (A2W) is an educational event where students gain experience by coordinating and producing an annual show. Young designers are challenged to imagine, create, and inspire by expressing their point of view through wearable art. This highly anticipated fashion show fuses the talents from several departments in the College of Design and beyond, exposing student designers to the broader field of fashion. A2W attracts approximately 4,000 attendees in addition to encouraging participation by engaging the student body, the Raleigh community, and the broader design industry.

VISIONA2W’s vision is to inspire and challenge our audience and designers to think about clothing in a di®erent way. We plan to evolve from a highly anticipated event at NC State into a fashion focal point for the entire East Coast. A2W’s intention is to establish and expand committed support from within the University, the city of Raleigh, and the creative community.

STATEMENTThe student-driven foundation of A2W has provided a stage for an eclectic group of students and many opportunities for cross-campus collaboration. A2W lives and breathes student excitement. It is one of the few events where every aspect has been influenced by the students, from the production of the show to the works on display. Every year A2W showcases the strengths of this University—its focus on innovation and creativity and it challenges students to create tactile representationsof their dreams.

2018

At an institution better known for science, engineering and technology, students’

passion for fashion design seems to be on a major upswing…In a courtyard at the

College of Design, several hundred people turned out in late April to watch 23 designers and more than 100 models pull o® what’s likely one of the biggest fashion

events in the region — a fashion show called Art2Wear.

“There’s a heavy emphasis on experimental materials even though

these come out to be garments,” said Charles Joyner, professor of art+design.

“And on the runway sitting some 50 feet, 75 feet, 100 yards away, you don’t see

that, you don’t get the fact of all the intricate handwork that’s gone on.”

// NC STATE NEWS, APRIL 25, 2012

Art2Wear is powered by student e®ort, from the lighting to the video shorts that

introduce each collection. The juried show has become a bucket list-style goal for

many in the colleges. // THE NEWS AND OBSERVER, APRIL 18, 2015

Not unlike the scene inside the tents at the Lincoln Center during New York Fashion Week, the vibe outside N.C. State’s Art2Wear fashion show on Friday night was frenetic. Evening thunder- storms moved the annual student show from its original outdoor setting on Sta®ord Commons inside to a ballroomin the sleek new Talley Student Union.// THE NEWS AND OBSERVER, 2014

Katherine Guerra’s designs in rich colors of navy, cranberry, green and purple were flanked with peacock feathers and worn by models with dramatic make up. She, joined by a few other designers, created glamorous dresses including a navy tube dress with a thick mesh tutu and a skin clinging black evening gown. // TECHNICIAN, 2005
