OURTHEME

Each year VCFS is excited to introduce a new theme created to inspire our designers, models, dancers and musicians.

This year, VCFS will be depicting a progression of the most historical art periods from the past seven centuries. Beginning with “The Renaissance” Era and ending with “Pop Art”, we will journey together to a revival of art in an entirely new form: through fashion.

Designers and choreographers will be inspired by different art periods in the creation of their collections and performances. We can’t wait to see what these extraordinary students have in store for us!

“The restoration of consciousness of the past”

“A re-awakening and new production of an old piece

of work”
