Design Competition

The Art of Fashion Foundation will host its 12th annual design competition in conjunction with Scotiabank Nuit Blanche, in its presentation of “Art” as “Fashion”; where art meets fashion and fashion inspires art.

Building on the guiding principle that fashion is a contemporary art form, the Art of Fashion: La Belle Époque exhibit brings 10 of Toronto’s emerging fashion designers together under one roof to create wearable art. Exclusively showcased during Nuit Blanche the designers will create a collection of garments based on their interpretation of this year’s theme.

Designers will compete for the title of Most Promising Designer and Best Exhibit by creating a collection of garments based on their interpretation of “La Belle Époque”.
