"Here's a little something about Sublet: our mission is to be the go-to source for stylish and truly wearable clothing for the eco-minded consumer. We simply aim to cultivate a community that brings care to the garment industry and style to sustainable design. In an age of mass production, we only produce what we love and mull over every detail from the hem of a t-shirt to the drape of a cowl.", says Inessah Selditz, 2006 Fashion Design graduate.

Charity Fashion Show - by Stephanie Montes


Each year students and amateur designers across Texas submit portfolios to the Heart House Emerging Designer Contest.

Stephanie Montes, a senior in the fashion design program, was chosen to be one of the two up and coming designers for the event. The annual fashion show was held at Austin Music Hall, Austin, TX on August 23, 2008.

The event raised $80,000 to support the expansion of Heart House afterschool centers, where children receive a free, safe and academically focused afterschool program. With an audience of 600 attendees, and a tremendous media sponsorship engagement with Austin Monthly Magazine that sponsored the VIP after party, the event was called the premier fashion show of the season.













“I consider the entire experience my version of an internship. Instead of spending time in an office, I was able to see what it would be like to work on my own, as a freelance designer.” -S.Montes
