Alvanon collaborates with Fashion Institute of Technology

The Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) and Alvanon has collaborated for a Fit Movement. This collaboration would provide FIT’s School of Business and Technology with advanced technical fit tools and provide students with encouragement, mentoring and class seminars that cover the business of fashion.

Janice Wang, Alvanon CEO points out that Alvanon’s Fit Movement is designed to nourish, grow and re-establish the art and science of apparel manufacturing in New York City. To attain this, Alvanon is working with industry associations and schools, and supplying them with tools, technology and training that address the manufacturing sector of the fashion business.

Steven Frumkin, Dean, Fashion Institute of Technology, has been instrumental in bringing his school’s support to the re-skilling of NYC apparel manufacturing. Together, they are helping to cultivate new generations of ‘hands on’ artisans, such as patternmakers, who are essential to garment production.

Alvanon’s association with FIT focuses on the school’s Technical Design Department. Alvanon is also a member of FIT’s Technical Design Advisory Board, which focuses on current curriculum challenges and strategies to provide students with additional practical experience.

Alvanon has replaced the School of Business and Technology’s existing inventory of fashion tools with men’s, women’s, children’s and plus size AlvaForm fit mannequins, grading blocks, and its Virtual AlvaForm through its Fit Movement collaboration with FIT.
