On Friday evening, LIM College presented its annual runway show located at The Glasshouse in New York City. As is the case each year, the production was entirely student-operated, from curating brands to marketing to finding sponsors (this year, it was Amazon Fashion) to set design to styling.In past years, the run of the show was comprised mostly of emerging and indie designers. (LIM College separates itself from other fashion institutions by focusing exclusively on the business side of the industry.) This year, however, featured more student design talent. It was the first runway since the Japan Educational Foundation (JEF) acquired LIM. As such, recent graduates from JEF-owned ESMOD, one of the top fashion design schools in Paris, had the chance to showcase their work.The show — aptly titled “Global Fashion Fusion” — was divided into seven parts: It began with designs by the New York-based brand Nicole Miller, followed by Amazon looks styled by LIM students. The student design talent came next, first from LIM and then from ESMOD. Creations by Veronica Fletcher for her brand Sonny Michael walked down the runway for part six, titled “Heritage & High Fashion.” More Amazon looks closed out the show.Ahead, see the standout designs from the 2026 LIM College Fashion Show.
