Cocktails and Couture

On Saturday night, the Harvard Vestis Council held their annual event "Cocktails and Couture," which is a series of mini fashion shows from student designers at Harvard. The designers were really impressive, especially the gorgeous construction of freshman Meri Burruss' dresses.
My roommate Margaret Wang '09 is the president of the Vestis Council so I'm a bit biased, but it's one of the most elegant student-group put on events at Harvard.
With the excellent food, beautiful models and well-dressed crowd, it definitely took my mind off impending final papers...
Let the photos speak for themselves!
