Thank you for helping us honor our history, uplift our community, and imagine a more inclusive future for all. 🌈

In 2014, music and design collided as the Mannes School of Music and Parsons collaborated to present a fully staged performance of “Il Postino” by Daniel Catán at Hunter College’s Kaye Playhouse. Students across Interior Design, Architecture, Integrated Design, Fashion, Illustration, and Product Design majors were involved every step of the way in crafting props, costumes, and sets to bring to life the production masterfully performed by Mannes School of Music students. #ParsonsxPerformingArts
Catch up with Kai Miller ( ‘26) as he takes us on a journey through his experience at the Yale Norfolk Residency. In this summer residency for rising seniors, students undertake an experimentally-based six-week intensive at the Yale Norfolk campus in Connecticut. The residency includes studio visits and lectures by a selection of visiting artists.

Kai created the multi-media, multi-sensory installation “Untitled3/Direction of Play” through close collaboration with the wide range of artists he had the opportunity to work alongside at the residency. Catch Kai’s work on view at the BFA Photography end of year exhibition running May 9 - 18.

Wednesday May 6th 6:30pm
Parsons Tishman Auditorium 63 Fifth Ave NYC
RSVP link in bio

Women make up 75% of fashion graduates, yet power at the top of the industry tells a different story. Only a small fraction of the industry’s top roles are held by women.

Gabriela, Veronica and Rachel stand at the forefront of fashion, leading influential brands while inspiring change through creativity, sustainability, and modern values.

Gabriela Hearst, Creative Director & Founder of Gabriela Hearst, is one of the most important voices in fashion’s movement toward sustainability, craftsmanship, and enduring design

Veronica Leoni is the first woman in the history of Calvin Klein Collection to serve as creative director

Rachel Scott Founder/Creative Director of Diotima and Creative Director of Proenza Schouler is a trailblazer and one of the most influential new voices in American fashion.

Julie Gilhart, fashion strategist, advisor to LVMH Prize, and member of the Board of Governors of Parsons.
Beginning in 2012, students from Parsons’ School of Art, Media, and Technology and Mannes School of Music teamed up with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra to develop innovative artistic outcomes that explored the future of orchestral garments and enabled participants to hear colors and see sounds.

In the course Fashionable Technologies, students constructed innovative and sustainable wearable technologies that both transcended material performance constraints and visually illuminated the original music compositions of their Mannes classmates.This technology demonstrated how the performance itself could be enhanced by new means of visual expression, with the garments and performance space itself serving as a canvas for motion and sound-activated digital projections.
