Indigenous Creator Amy Denet Deal on Career, Community, and Cultural Heritage
On November 19, FIT held A Celebration of National Native American Heritage Month, a full day of panel discussions and performances featuring Indigenous designers and creatives. The special event was timed to Red Shawl Day, a day of remembrance honoring murdered and missing Indigenous people and Alaska Natives, especially women and children. FIT’s Social Justice Center cohosted the conference with 4KINSHIP, a retail brand and shop in New Mexico, founded by FIT alumna Amy Denet Deal, that sells sustainable clothing and accessories designed by Denet Deal and other Indigenous artists. Before founding her business in 2022, Denet Deal designed for major corporate brands, such as Reebok and Puma. She grew up in Indiana and was raised by an adoptive family, but always felt the desire to connect with her Navajo heritage. In 2019, she decided to move to New Mexico to start that journey.

Conversation with a Curator: Elizabeth Way on ‘Africa’s Fashion Diaspora’
The Museum at FIT recently opened a groundbreaking exhibition that looks at the African diaspora through a fashion lens. The museum’s associate curator of costume, Elizabeth Way, conceived of this show, Africa’s Fashion Diaspora, and selected the pieces that are on display. Newsroom spoke with the exhibition curator about how the show approaches Black identity, what visitors should look for, and how they can extend their knowledge. Newsroom: How is this show different from other fashion exhibitions with a focus on Africa? Elizabeth Way: Africa’s Fashion Diaspora is a focused exhibition that looks at how Black fashion designers from across the diaspora are contributing to transnational conversations on modern Black identity. Philosophers and politicians have called these ideas Pan-Africanism, Black Consciousness, Négritude, and even Afrofuturism. This exhibition acknowledges fashion’s crucial role in expressing Black identity across national boundaries. Click here to read the original article.

President Joyce F. Brown Announces Plans to Step Down in 2025
The Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), a part of the State University of New York (SUNY), today announced President Joyce F.

A Bright Idea from Home Products Development
Home Products Development at FIT is designed for and by the growing home products industry, and its students are encouraged to think creatively and broadly about solutions to challenges that face the industry and consumers—from toilet paper dispensers to coffee makers to body pillows. Marc Littlejohn, adjunct instructor in the program, had a framework for the capstone class that focused on a highly creative and collaborative approach for developing products that meet consumers’ ever-changing needs, while also satisfying the growing demand for job candidates with the specific skills that make the program’s graduates excellent hires in the industry. In this year’s senior capstone class, Annie Hassan, Home Products Development ’24, put the framework to use when she developed her final project, Solariscape (see diagram above). Solariscape uses window curtains with thin-film photovoltaic (PV) cells to convert sunlight into electricity that can power a single-family home. The PV cells are glued onto the back of a curtain with an attached 650W microinverter. The solar cells weigh 100 times less than a traditional solar panel and can generate 18 times more power/kg. The idea, Hassan said, came from the fact that only 5% of single-family homes in the United States utilize solar power; and since her assignment was to develop a product that was not yet in the market, Hassan saw an opportunity.

Slow Fashion Capstone Project Highlights Four Sustainable Fibers
The 33 students who developed this year’s Textile Development and Marketing capstone project, titled “Farm to Fabric,” describe it as “a heartfelt letter from nature, asking us to slow down and appreciate the journey of our clothes, from the field to the fabric.” The newly revamped course, taught by Adjunct Assistant Professor Lorenza Wong, focused on slow fashion and collaboration with the farmers and spinners who create and develop fibers. The students worked with four fibers—abacá, piña, mohair, and Jacob wool—from the Philippines, South Africa, and Upstate New York. They made yarn out of the fibers, learned about spinning, and even dyed many of the fibers with natural colorants derived from FIT’s rooftop Natural Dye Garden.

Kenneth Cole, Rebecca Hessel Cohen, and FIT Alumna Norma Kamali Honored at 2024 Gala
Honorees Rebecca Hessel Cohen, Kenneth Cole, and Norma Kamali with FIT President Joyce F. Brown On Wednesday, May 8, FIT held its Annual Awards Gala, which included the Future of Fashion Runway Show presented by Macy’s, at The Glasshouse in New York City. The event, hosted by supermodel and philanthropist Carolyn Murphy, benefited the FIT Foundation, which is dedicated to nurturing the next generation of FIT students by facilitating programs, developing new initiatives, and providing scholarships. Additionally, Tamron Hall announced the creation of the Kenneth Cole Social Impact Award, to benefit a student who shows outstanding engagement in social impact. Norma Kamali, who received the Outstanding Alumni Award, presented by Matthew Yokobosky, said: “Determination is more important than even talent, that and the help of the universe and all its pushing and prodding, I am still on my path and the universe is still keeping me in line with my purpose. The most important time of your life is what you learn before you transition into the workforce. How you listen, how you learn, and how you study. How you follow instructions, and how you discipline yourself to meet deadlines and reach goals. These are the tools used in the life of everyone successful in fashion.” Click here to read the original article.

FIT Invests in Energy-Efficient Infrastructure
The chiller plant uses electricity to maintain a comfortable indoor climate at FIT. Photos by Smiljana Peros. In the fight against climate change, individual action is important, but upgrading infrastructure makes a much larger impact. This spring, FIT installed a new energy-efficient air-cooling system that will make maintaining a comfortable indoor climate significantly less energy-intensive. This chiller plant will reduce energy costs by more than $1 million per year and reduce annual emissions by almost 1,000 metric tons—equivalent to the electricity consumption of 3,000 households. The old chiller was powered by steam created using fossil fuels. The new chiller is powered by electricity. Currently, New York City’s electricity is mostly derived from fossil fuels, but more renewable electricity is coming. For example, in 2026, New York City will receive a transmission line from Canada containing 100 percent renewable power. FIT’s goal, ultimately, is to reach zero emissions by 2050, in line with New York City’s Local Law 97, passed in 2019. Click here to read the original article.
