On September 24th, The IIDA Illinois Chapter hosted its 5th annual STITCH Fashion and Charity Event at Park West in Chicago, IL. The show paired designers with manufacturers to create innovative, inspired & imaginative garments for a spectacular runway show.
Design teams put their own spin or conceptual interpretation for the 2009 theme “Black & White and STITCHed All Over”. The venue was packed, tickets were sold out, and the designs were a huge hit.
Congratulations to the 2009 STITCH Garment Winners!
