Dean's List - Boston University and Parsons School of Design

50 on Fire Winner
Bostinno
Acknowledged as one of Boston's top 50 innovators out of 2,300 applicants and 200 finalists. "A Boston-based fashion designer, Amanda Curtis is the co-founder and CEO of 19th Amendment, a fashion tech company aimed at helping emerging designers connect with consumers and buyers on an interactive platform. The head designer for Alistair Archer, Curtis has also worked for designers such as Diane von Furstenburg and Richie Rich. Curtis is said to be "bringing NYC fashion know-how and Boston tech innovation together" in a way that highlights the Boston fashion scene's edge." "Being on fire is about being brave. It’s about pushing on the four walls of an industry, a city, a thought, until they expand to make room for an idea, a talent, a success that’s so much bigger than what was there before, and too incredible to be ignored. BostInno’s 50 on Fire finalists and winners are all doing something in their own right to change Boston for the better, and inspiring those around them to do the same.
