Boston 25 News: Boston fashion students compete for chance to design costume for an Olympian

Boston 25 News recently highlighted three of our amazing Class of 2026 Boston Arts Academy graduates—Isabella Castro Correa of Jamaica Plain, Ynez Corea of Mattapan, and Cecilia Maria Dominguez Gray of Roxbury—who are stepping into the national spotlight for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

As featured in the news coverage, these talented young designers were handpicked by U.S. Figure Skating to go head-to-head in the first-ever “Figure Skating x Fashion Styling 2027” competition. They are putting the final touches on their custom fashion sketches, competing for the chance to have their design transformed into an official exhibition costume for Olympic figure skater Isabeau Levito.

At the Boston Arts Academy Foundation, moments like this showcase the true impact of an arts-integrated education. Seeing our alumni take what they learned in our fashion design classrooms and apply it on a stage alongside Olympic athletes fills us with overwhelming pride.
