On April 13th and 15th Boston’s Symphony Hall played host to a distinctive fashion contest entitled Project Tchaikovsky. This Project Runway-style contest featured creations from nine unique student designers, each enthused by various selections from the musical great.

At the start of the evening, attendees were able to examine the floor of Symphony Hall as elaborately constructed designs from the contestants strolled through. The event’s “finale” occurred on the 15th where guests were invited post-symphony to like a runway fashion show of the competing designers where the winner of the Project Tchaikovsky challenge would be revealed.

The winner would be affirmed after a panel of five judges met with each of the evening’s designers and carefully reviewed their creations.

While showing off their designs to the judges, designers gave a brief background of which musical selections enthused and played into the creation of their gown.
