TEAM LEADER
This project was a competition between groups for a window concept. The theme was sustainability day. As a college sophomore, I found inspiration in something very simple- my coffee lid. The lipstick was on the rim, and it looked oddly pretty. I took a photo of it and put it into a picture collage app and rotated the photos, forming a flower-like design from the coffee lids. This was the start of our groups pitch.
My group ended up winning the contest and I was assigned team leader. This meant finding dimensions, materials, costs, and delegating tasks. But ultimately, I was the one at the end of the day painting coffee lids and hot gluing them to the backdrop. All of the cups and lids featured in this project were used cups collected from trash cans on campus over a two-week period. It was important to show sustainability even in craft. The model wears Marist Mporium apparel and holds out the latest Marist Fashion Travel Mug that we had launch the same week as the window. The Mporium shop is located across the hall from this window.




SHOP OF INDIA
These photos feature before and after shots of the main window of Shop of India, my hometown job. The shop is on historic Main St of New Hope, PA, and therefore the window glass itself it not permitted to be replaced. You can see however the summer display created by a former employee compared to my winter display.






MARIST CHRISTMAS WINDOW
Another Marist Fashion window I was involved with later in the semester is featured in these two photos. While a large group of people worked on the tree portion, I was in charge of the group creating birch trees.
