Exploring the theme of interplay between Eastern and Western aspects of group identity, Identities 2009 will feature a diverse cast of 40 models strutting the catwalk at Harvard's Annenberg Hall. Segments of the show will parallel 1920s Shanghai and New York, and feature Asian American models in Americana-inspired outfits. In addition, the show will feature original designs by students from Harvard and New York fashion schools.
"YesStyle.com is delighted to sponsor this year's Identities,"
Identities co-producer and board member of the affiliated Harvard-Radcliffe Asian American Association Christina Zhou stated, "I am excited for my team to work with YesStyle.com to promote our vision of exploring the interplay between the cultural and fashion aspects of Asian American identity."
Identities 2009 marks the third edition of the charity fashion show. In July 2009, YesStyle.com will be celebrating its third anniversary online.

About Identities
Identities was founded in the spring of 2006 with the aim of exploring the ways in which fashion and identity influence each other, and of promoting student involvement in the arts at Harvard. In contrast to other student shows, Identities is focused on presenting a conceptual, design-centered look at fashion, while staying true to themes that appeal to students. Identities places a strong emphasis on promoting the design community at Harvard, seeking to attract students who are passionate about design and the fashion industry.
