FORMSHOW is a tradeshow for international design that gives a specific and highly curated group of artisanal fashion designers the opportunity to showcase their newest collections, timed with New York Fashion Week.
I was under the supervision of Jenny Chase, who was the head of this operation. I arrived Friday at 2 p.m. to begin setting up the showroom with about five other volunteers. Some of the other tasks the volunteers took on were steaming clothes, modeling garments for buyers, color coordinating racks and hangers, working the checkout table, and assisting with anything the designers need throughout the day.
