Product Runway: Sponsor Registration!

IIDANY Rochester City Center will be partnering with AIA Rochester to organize and host an avant-garde couture fashion design competition with a twist called Product Runway during Fashion Week of Rochester in October 2022!

The Concept: Product Runway will put teams from local interior design firms, architectural firms, and design schools in a fashion design competition by having them create handmade garments out of standard architectural finish materials. Each fashion design will be based on an iconic Rochester building using only materials offered from manufacturers/representatives assigned to them. This event promises to be a night to remember full of eye-catching creations!
