Harmonic Threads:
AAS Fashion Exhibition

April 8–15, 2026

Critic Award Ceremony: April 9, 1–2 pm

Music is a universal language that shapes how we think, feel, and connect. Harmonic Threads explores music beyond genre, focusing instead on the emotions that sound evokes and how those feelings translate into fashion. Through silhouette, texture, color, and movement, the exhibition invites viewers to consider how emotional experiences—fleeting, layered, or contradictory—can be materialized on the body.

The exhibition is organized by the Fashion Design AAS Exhibition Committee with collaborators, including adjunct instructor Ethan Minsker of the Film and Media department, with students Benjamin Tarace and Candance Cooper, who produced a short film about the connection between music and emotion. Hue magazine's Alexander Joseph and intern Kevin Diller produced a short film asking members of the FIT community about their favorite music.
