This upcoming Saturday, Nov. 2, Student Activities Council (S.A.C.) will be hosting Project Runway.

The event will take place in the Hermann Student Union Great rRoom, at 7 p.m.

Students can compete in teams or individually for gift cards. They will have an hour to create an outfit out of different types of materials, such as trash bags, tablecloths, foil and other decorative items provided by S.A.C.

The judges of this event will be student representatives from the fashion merchandising department who took part in the recent event of Rent the Runway.

Programmers of the event are Allyson Gass, junior, and Hailey Meert, sophomore, along with the S.A.C. members.

“This event will give students an opportunity to show their creative side while having fun,” said Gass.

“At Mercyhurst we are all about recycling and saving our environment. This event will not only allow students to be creative but it will also allow them to recycle while creating their outfit,” Gass said.

This is an opportunity for students to show their fashion skills and be rewarded for creating the best and most creative outfit.

Students are encouraged to participate either in teams or individually. Materials are also going to be provided and the only thing they have to bring with them to the event is their creativity and passion for design.
