A little drop with a big job!

Last month, Stitch got to meet Drippy, NYC DEP’s new official mascot—a creative collaboration between the NYC Department of Environmental Protection, FIT, and NYC’s Department of Design and Construction.

Designed by students and faculty from FIT’s Illustration BFA and MFA programs through the Town+Gown NYC partnership, Drippy first emerged from “Drippy’s Water Adventure,” an interactive educational project exploring New York City’s water system through visual storytelling.

Now stepping into an official citywide role, Drippy will help introduce New Yorkers of all ages to environmental stewardship, conservation, climate awareness, and the journey of NYC’s drinking water.

Drippy officially debuted at Archer Elementary School in the Bronx ahead of a summer of appearances across all five boroughs.

Two FIT alums. One custom gown. A lifelong friendship.�
For Anne Hathaway’s 2026 Met Gala custom Collection look, Michael tapped fellow FIT alum, longtime friend, and renowned artist Peter McGough () to create a one-of-a-kind painting on the sculptural black gown.

Hand-painted over the course of 60 hours, the gown features motifs inspired by John Keats’ poem “Ode on a Grecian Urn.”
