The High School of Fashion Industries (HSFI) X Swarovski Educational Support Program represents a meaningful and long-standing 10 year partnership dedicated to nurturing the next generation of fashion designers. Through ongoing collaboration with Swarovski North America, the Honors Fashion Design Class (taught by Ms. Rojas) gain invaluable exposure to industry expertise, professional mentorship, and real-world inspiration. Swarovski’s continued engagement with the school, including visits to campus and direct interaction with students, has become a highlight of the academic year and a cornerstone of the program’s success.
At the heart of this partnership is a shared commitment to creativity, craftsmanship, and emerging talent. Swarovski representatives consistently provide insight into the professional fashion and design landscape, encouraging students to push creative boundaries while maintaining industry standards. Their generosity and dedication help enrich classroom instruction and elevate student work, allowing young designers to see their ideas come to life with confidence and ambition. The support offered goes beyond materials by validating students’ potential and reinforces the value of their creative voices.
The impact of the HSFI X Swarovski Educational Support Program is evident in the exceptional work produced by students and the pride expressed by both educators and industry partners. HSFI faculty and students alike remain deeply grateful for Swarovski’s belief in their mission and its ongoing investment in arts education. As the partnership continues to grow, both institutions look ahead with excitement, united by a shared vision of fostering innovation, excellence, and opportunity for future leaders in fashion.
