EJFF 18 - Day TWO

On the second day of EJFF 18, it was time for the 1st year and 2nd year students to show off their works.

The first year students were task to design and create a shirt with 3D dimensions on it, with a research and development of their own, from the basic form of a shirt, they create a whole new dimension, and they create these shirts using creative fabric they had developed all in white. This collection is called Shirtology. And I am telling you, although they have only studied at ESMOD for a year, their work is astonishing!

On the other hand, the second year student were task to create a whole new clothing line in collaboration with Galeries Lafayette. The collection they made contain 4 colour, White, Red, Blue, and Black, which is why this collection is called 4 Colour Pour la Mode.

On this second day, it’s not only for ESMOD Jakarta’s current students to show their works, but also for our Alumni, Ria Miranda, Khanan, Lubna Ibrahim, Eri Dani, and Sisca Tjong.

The first show was Ria Miranda’s and Khanan’s at 5 pm. Ria Miranda’s collection is called 'Minang Trilogy', we can see her true signature through the pastel colour range she uses on this collection. And Khanan’s collection is called 'Classy Chic', we can also see her signature in the natural colours and a glimpse of batik she uses in this collection.

The second show was Lubna Ibrahim, Eri Dani, and Sisca Tjong at 8 pm, and people I’m telling you when I saw their collection I can’t stop saying ‘WOW’, because they are so beautiful. Lubna Ibrahim’s collection uses the colour of cream, peach and a little bit of tosca, mainly she uses lace, her collection was so beautiful in it’s own way, and you can definitely see the theme just like the collection’s name, 'Autumn Fairy Tale'. Eri Dani uses black as his main colour this time and a little bit of white to balance it, although this collection is a little bit dark, you can still see the beauty in it, this collection is called 'Unspoken Litany’. And last but not least was Sisca Tjong, in this collection Sisca brought a little bit of theatricality in it, she uses the colour of red, white, and black, for this night show, Sisca Tjong’s collection was by far my favourite, Sisca Tjong presents to you her collection, ‘Insanity’ - S.

EJFF 18 - Day ONE

We started the day with a rehearsal for the models who will be walking on the runway that evening. It was kinda fun watching them walking back and forth on the runway, those who already know how and when they should go were relaxing on the audience seats.

The hour goes on, time to start the exhibition inside. You see each graduating students had to design 2 clothing line and a few shoes and maybe some accessories to complete the looks. And they also had to design a booth to showcase and sell these collection, this had to do with our Visual Merchandising class. Each booth contains 2 to 4 graduating students’ collections, and these booths were attended by 1st and 2nd year students of ESMOD Jakarta under the supervision of our Fashion Marketing teacher, Mr. Toto Dwitarwasto. Oh, and there's also booths by our sponsors and partners!
