Talented Toronto Film School Students and Grads Featured at Fashion On Yonge

On Sept. 9, Fashion on Yonge not only showcased the incredible collections by three Toronto Film School Fashion Design graduates, but it was also the platform for a series of short films created by talented Film Production students.

Fashion on Yonge, hosted by the Downtown Yonge Business Improvement Area (BIA), is an incredible annual fashion show that showcases hottest looks for fall 2015 available at the different retailers in the Downtown Yonge neighbourhood.

But, this year the organizers decided to augment the show by flanking these fall looks with the collection by three Toronto Film School Fashion Design graduates.

 

“We were especially excited to showcase the work of Toronto Film School design students – not only because as a member, they made a positive contribution to the fashion cluster in Downtown Yonge, but also because we believe in supporting emerging designers in their career paths,” said Cheryl Diego the Events and Partnerships Manager at the Downtown Yonge BIA.

Before a packed house, Fashion on Yonge first featured the collection by Toronto Film School graduate Sandra Al ‘Dabbagh, Wesley Tang and Ricardo Welch.

 

“I’m really happy for this opportunity,” Welch said. “To show everyone my vision and what is really happening in my head.”

This remarkable fashion event was not only an incredible opportunity for these fashion design graduates, but was also chance for current Toronto Film School Film Production students to creatively explore the unknown.

 

Michael Shaw was one of the students who worked to create the three introductory films that played prior to each fashion show and set the tone for the show.

“I know nothing of Fashion, I will be honest with you,” Shaw said. “But I am here because I want to open my horizons.”
