Live Fashion show stream today at 7pm pacific (10pm EST) featuring three garments from my “Sunny” MFA Fashion Design Thesis collection. To watch please visit the Academy of Art University YouTube channel https://youtu.be/zKkF7KUmKwE. MFA Fashion designer Andrea (Aunni) Young’s thesis collection is inspired by beautiful women basking in resort life—blue skies and sunny days, lavishing in adventurous oceanic and nautical lifestyles. The collection captures this aesthetic with Mikado fabric interwoven in complex structures and bright colors that resonate in a hand-developed, luxurious womenswear collection. #graduationfashionshow @aunniydesign @academyu3ddesign @academyutextiledesign @academyustyling @academyuaccessories @academyuknitweardesign @academy_of_art @academyufashionmedia @academyufashionbusiness @beyondthefrontrow #academyofartuniversity #art #fashiondesigner #fashion #design #style #designer #wip #fashionblogger #fashionschool #artschool #workinprogress #sanfrancisco #fashioneducation #thesiscollection #womenswear - # #aunniydesign #officialaunni https://www.instagram.com/p/Cdd_v20v8Lf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Blessed! It was an honor and a pleasure to be mentored by the late great Edgar Brookins, general manager of the AFRO American Newspaper, who passed away on December 2, 2021. May his legacy live on through his family and our work for his daughter’s foundation, The Ciera Brookins Lupus Educational Foundation. #aunniydesign #officialaunni #edgarbrookins #cierabrookins #clef https://www.instagram.com/officialaunni/p/CXID81vrVAq/?utm_medium=tumblr
