Last month I had the opportunity to take a special styling class at FIT taught by professional stylist Nancy Alusick with photographs taken by professional photographer Maria Vullo. This class was called Styling: Still Life Fundamentals. Basically the class was learning positioning soft goods (textiles) the way they do in magazines and on magazine covers without using models.

Yet in the wake of this crisis many fashion brands have used their talent and influence to give back and help in anyway they can to fight the coronavirus.
