On Wednesday, the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) presented its end-of-year senior fashion show, Collection 2025. The showcase featured the work of 12 senior design students: Anna Winters, Avidron, Ruolin Bai, Jersey Bond, Isabel Clulow, Nura Dhar, Olivia Rose Founier, Vivian “Bibi” Lin, Minwoo Matthew Oh, Bryce Satow, Jordan Wang and Tracy Zhang.
“At RISD, Apparel Design students are pushed to identify their own inspirations and references, in order to develop their individual design language and to find their creative voice within the realms of fashion, costume and textiles,” Gwen Van Den Eijnde, Apparel Design department head, said in a statement. “The program emphasizes a rich creative process and a more experimental, material-driven approach to designing garments.”
The designs included looks with sculptural detailing, exaggerated proportions and dramatic silhouettes. There was also interesting textile play, such as Lin’s use of felted wool and latex and Zhang’s fur-blocking. While the majority of this spring’s senior fashion shows haven’t reflected society’s worrying economy, RISD’s runway tells a different story.
“Garments were conceived through a multiplicity of concepts: they were made to embody characters, to echo the memory of a place, to imagine a dystopian story or much happier and hopeful scenarios,” Eijnde said. “One can see how the expressivity of students’ collections mirrors a state of uncertainty in the world.”
Ahead, see every look from the RISD Collection 2025 runway.
