So, what do you get when you put goth, Tokyo school girl, and modern evening wear together?
Identities - a fabulous fashion show featuring a variety of diverse fashions that give viewers a chance to experience different expressions of individuality. Focusing on modern Asian American identity, Identities - very appropriately termed - featured segments on Japanese fashion (including a showcase of the popular Japanese BAPE brand), metrosexuality, works by Harvard student designers, and Asian street wear. Keeping it exciting with frequently changing themes and hip-hop performances on the cat-walk, Identities kept the audience fully entertained. Although the music was interrupted a couple of times throughout the performance and some models appeared to have difficulty with flailing arms while gliding down the runway, Identities was fresh and fun and perhaps the perfect event to top off the evening.
