The Apparel and Textile Design (ATD) program welcomes MSU ATD alumna and Designer Lauren Paulauskas who will share her design process and fashion design experiences on Thursday, April 27, at 6:30 p.m. in B130 Wells Hall.

Paulauskas is a fashion designer, graphic artist, and illustrator based in New York. Currently, she works as the Lead Fashion Accessories Designer for Gina Group, an accessories design firm. Her work takes her across the world from Europe to Africa to South America doing textile research, and most recently, Hong Kong and Guangzhou for their seasonal Trade Exposition.

Architecture, graphic design, and interior design inform her aesthetics, but her goal as a designer is to accurately bring form, function, and seasonal trend directions together into designs for each of her many prestigious clients. 

Paulauskas is one of the featured judges for this year’s Apparel and Textile Design fashion show on Friday, April 28, at 7 p.m. at the Wharton Center for Performing Arts.

Tickets to the show are available for purchase from the Wharton Center for Performing Arts website.
