SUMMER SIZZLES AT EDL!

ATLANTA (March 12, 2007) – Why follow trends when you can create them? English Design Laboratory (EDL), Atlanta’s premiere fashion school for tweens and teens, introduces “Project Summer,” six weekly workshops tailor-made for the fashion forward, June 4 – July 26, 2007.

Participants will discover the fashion world from the inside out as they move from concept to creation in a week-long whirlwind that’s as fun as it is challenging. These summer workshops are specifically designed to teach the basics – sketching, trend boards, line design, accessorizing and more – while allowing plenty of room for the imagination. It’s anything but “sew-sew” as the week culminates with a fashion show where designers debut their newly created lines.
