For the past 15 years, Family and Consumer Science (FACS) teacher Carol Cowan and students have taken their design, sewing and modeling skills on the runway.
This year’s Winter Fashion Show was held January 5 on the stage in the Hilton HS Auditorium.
Among the students who are interested in pursuing a career in fashion is Sara Hudson, a freshman who wants to go to the Fashion Institute of Technology in NYC. “Her garments were meticulously sewn,” Cowan said.
Participating in the January show were: Liz Meader, Nicole Probst, Yulianna Poplavskiy, Marissa Powers, Stephanie Spring and Claire Wolters.
Students were coached by Rochester’s Mary Therese Friel and husband Kent, who have a special and abiding interest in Cowan’s students and their potential for modeling. Mary Therese Friel has worked for more than a decade with Hilton High School fashion and design students as they prepared for a semi-annual runway show held at the High School.
