The Terry J. Lundgren Center for Retailing works to ensure that students aren't just getting a degree, but that they have access to develop themselves outside the classroom by having real-world experiences prior to graduation. By supporting our University of Arizona-recognized student organizations, we are able to expand their reach, enriching the student experience and provide guidance as they develop key leadership skills.
TREND Fashion Events Board
TREND Fashion Events Board welcomes students of all majors who are passionate about fostering and growing a fashion community on campus by planning, developing, and executing unique, campus-wide fashion events.
Each year, Trend selects members to travel to the MAGIC Fashion Trade Show, the largest fashion trade show in the US, in Las Vegas, Nevada, participate in Phoenix Fashion Week, and are consistently learning from representatives from local and national retailers. However, our favorite event of the year is our completely student-run fashion show during UA Fashion Week that features looks of local designers and our own Trend members.
Whatever your passion and goals are in fashion, you are sure to find a home in Trend. Applications for the board open in the Spring!
With Trend, you are sure to find something that inspires you!
