WIF extends heartfelt CONGRATULATIONS to Anisa Williams, the tenth university student to participate in our Paris Internship Program.
In May 2025, Anisa completed her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Fashion Design degree at Parsons Paris | The New School. Her family flew in from Canada to attend her commencement ceremony and see the fashion collection she created as part of her graduation requirements.
Anisa named her collection “Something to Remember Me by.” It was inspired by the Greek myth “Orpheus and Eurydice” and the fashions worn by rock star Jimi Hendrix. The garments Anisa designed and constructed ranged from casual wear (jeans, vests, and shirts) to evening wear and a denim overcoat.

After her Spring 2023 internship, Anisa continued to support WIF by attending the networking events we organized for Going Global with Barbara student cohorts.
So, WIF Founder & CEO Dr. Monique Y. Wells and Going Global with Barbara President Barbara Eubanks took great pleasure in visiting the fashion exhibition hall to congratulate her in person and admire her designs.

Anisa’s exhibition space was located on the ground floor near the upper level of the exhibition space, making it easy to find among the dozens of student collections on display.
