Lasell University honors and remembers Yolanda Cellucci, a cherished friend whose passion, generosity, and vibrant spirit left an enduring mark on our community.
Yolanda generously shared her time and expertise with our fashion students and programs, including her memorable involvement with the Lasell Fashion event at the Larz Anderson Auto Museum. Through her mentorship and enthusiasm, she helped create experiences that inspired creativity, learning, and connection.
Her legacy also lives on through her extraordinary contribution to the Lasell University Fashion Collection, where she and her daughter, Sondra Celli, donated more than 40 exquisite gowns and headpieces (pictured here). These remarkable pieces continue to enrich our students' educational experiences and preserve an important part of fashion history.
Yolanda's impact will be felt for generations to come. Our thoughts are with her family, friends, and all who were touched by her kindness and generosity.
