DAC Rm. 128, Queens Campus
Nothing in fashion is ever really new. This presentation will
cover the influence of the Mayan, Incan, and Aztec civilizations
that once populated what is today known as Latin America, on the
recycled designs of the world of fashion. It will showcase not only
their influence on the wardrobes of Latin American countries today,
but also their influence in modern day design, such as that seen in
the 2013 Berlin Spring/Summer Fashion Week (July 2012). From the
bright colors to the detailed designs that once represented a level
of wealth, the multi-million dollar fashion industry has taken
their inspiration by traveling through time, bringing us many of
the items that are most popular in our outfits today.
