Look at these amazing Apparel and Design Class creations. Mr Olson says of them, "To say these students met my expectations would be a big old lie. They definitely exceeded them! I am so proud to put their work on display, and I hope they are too. Not only did they create the gowns, but they designed croquis, told me how they used the elements and principles of fashion design, and marketed a name for them. The classroom was so fun when they were making them!"
