Fashion Design Style Revolution! Get Started Get Started Get Started
Many young creatives love fashion… but without structure, mentorship, and industry exposure, talent can remain untapped. At CampXpressions, we transform interest into skill and imagination into impact.
👗👔 The Youth Style Lab: Fashion Foundations experience (Ages 9–15), created and led by multidisciplinary creative professional Mr. Wayde Stubbs, introduces young aspiring designers, stylists, and visionaries both young ladies and gentlemen, to explore fashion history, textile fundamentals, trend innovation, and the art of developing a signature style. Through hands-on design, creative experimentation, and professional runway preparation, students build confidence, presentation skills, and performance excellence.
This is more than fashion.
It’s creative expression. It’s stage presence. It’s leadership in motion.
Let the summer transformation begin.
