The Weekender Report!

Hey hey hey and HAPPY FRIDAY! It's been a long, cold week and it's time to start the weekend off right! Here is another handy dandy installment of the The Weekender Report.

Friday: 
  • Want to do a haunted house but too scared to go to Blackout Haunted House? Check out the Steampunk Haunted House instead! Located on Grand St., this attraction takes you into a darker side of Lewis Carroll's classic fiction. Upon arriving, visitors will be "thrust into a beautiful and terrifying dreamscape of neo-Victorian elegance and phantasmagoric clockwork horrors." Students pay $10 but only for walk-up the day of.

FIT's Daphne Guinness Exhibit: Oh My Guinness!

"This exhibition is done for the benefit of those out there, students or otherwise, who share this love." -Daphne Guinness

As everyone at FIT is aware the Daphne Guinness Exhibit has been on display for quite some time now, but it still has us buzzing! Daphne Guinness has been the fashion world's secret until 2007, when people started to take notice of the heiress. She was at the top of her career in 2009 when she walked in runway shows and became the face of a number of fashion campaigns. However, what has truly caught everyone's is Daphne's undying love for fashion, and unique but instinctive taste.

Daphne is known for wearing the most avant garde pieces in everyday life. But it's like she says,
"We need better things, not more. We should not pollute the world with meaningless, unused things when we can make and support things of rare and precious beauty." -Daphne Guinness
