Eco-Futurism Fashion Show

This year, the RPI Black Students’ Alliance Fashion Show is presented in partnership with EMPAC Research and PULSE, the RPI student group exploring electronic dance music.

Amid an era of rapid environmental transformation, this show asks: How can experimental and multisensory media reimagine the future of sustainable design? Visionary couture, innovative research, and cinematic and sonic explorations synthesize artistry, scientific progress, and eco-conscious ingenuity.

PULSE invigorates the runway with an original soundtrack, and extends the celebration with live DJ sets following the show. This student-led production and its showcase of BIPOC world-building challenges outdated paradigms and inspires a future rooted in sustainable creation.
