The work of FIT students and faculty took center stage in the Gallery FIT exhibition Crafting Change. Organized by the Textile/Surface Design Department in conjunction with New York Textile Month, the works featured in Crafting Change used long-established techniques in a modern context to explore the shifting boundaries between art, design, and technology. Combining hand-crafting techniques with digital processes preserves tradition while pushing textiles into the future. Projects bridging science and textiles have the potential to revolutionize the fashion and textile industries, leading us to a more sustainable world. These works were promising examples of how FIT is successfully encouraging interdisciplinary mergers of craft, technology, and sustainability in order to usher textile arts into the 21st century.

Unwind as the sun sets, stroll beneath grand trees, serenaded by melodious birdsong, while savoring mimosas. The "Ambrosia" collection merges two distinct art forms, uniting them through romantic patterns and vivid scenes. Sheer fabrics lend an exquisite touch of grace and refinement, draping luxuriously upon the wearer. Merging the opulent legacy of Mughal paintings with the contemporary allure of Toile de J ouy, each piece showcases intricate, vibrant designs that embody the essence of both worlds. This collection offers a timeless and versatile wardrobe adaptable to any occasion. Effortless elegance and enduring style harmonize within each garment, effortlessly transitioning from a chic brunch to a captivating evening soiree with a simple accessory change.
