This year the de Young Museum’s Annual Student Showcase “Where To: The Call of the Times” featured visual art, films, performances, gallery talks, and artist demonstrations by students from California universities and colleges. Academy of Art University, School of Fashion students were also invited, as a class, to showcase editorial styling (fashion). Instructor, Flore Morton, noted that the students took their styling inspiration from the de Young’s current exhibition Balenciaga and Spain.
