While the actual day is an exciting opportunity for the community to gather together, the Fashion Show Committee takes part in a long process of prior planning.

There is always so much detail that goes into planning the fashion show so we try to make it a better and better version each year. I\u2019d say the phrase \u2018last one, best one\u2019 applies to the way we planned this year\u2019s event.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What made the show the best one yet, as Sacks described it, was all of the new technological improvements. Stulman explained \u201cWe decided this year to make a slideshow of all the participants&#8217; names and materials used to be projected in the gym. It\u2019s hard to hear the MCs in the gym, which is an issue we\u2019ve been trying to solve, but we thought a slideshow would at least help the crowd know a little about each outfit.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since her first year in the fashion show in seventh grade, Chloe Keenan (Form VI) has created a total of seven looks. This year, she created three outfits out of paint samples, paper origami, and Reese\u2019s Peanut Butter Cups. Ever since watching the fashion show for the first time in sixth grade, Keenan has always dreamt of creating multiple looks. Keenan credits her friends for \u201ccomment(ing) when I talked about the fashion show and sa(ying) they would love to model. Last spring, I sketched out a few dresses, with the hopes of creating multiple, either that year or senior year. I didn\u2019t get around to making multiple last year, so I knew I needed to deliver this year.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/fieldstonnews.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-02-at-7.23.04\u202fPM.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"318\" src=\"https:\/\/fieldstonnews.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-02-at-7.23.04\u202fPM-1024x318.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11754\" style=\"width:579px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fieldstonnews.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-02-at-7.23.04\u202fPM-1024x318.png 1024w, https:\/\/fieldstonnews.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-02-at-7.23.04\u202fPM-300x93.png 300w, https:\/\/fieldstonnews.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-02-at-7.23.04\u202fPM-768x239.png 768w, https:\/\/fieldstonnews.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-02-at-7.23.04\u202fPM-480x149.png 480w, https:\/\/fieldstonnews.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Screenshot-2025-06-02-at-7.23.04\u202fPM.png 1242w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><em>Source: Chloe Keenan<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For all seniors who have participated in the fashion show over the years, it is bittersweet. Keenan is sad that her time dreaming up\u00a0 looks for the Fieldston Fashion Show has ended, but she plans on starting an unconventional fashion show club at Tufts in the fall. As for the future of the fashion show, Rebecca Flisser (Form IV) looks forward to stepping up in planning next year\u2019s show, along with Samantha Gold (Form V). Flisser exclaimed, \u201cWhen my parents toured Fieldston when I was four years old, the Fashion Show was a selling point. My mother always said that once I got to high school, this is what I was going to do.
