Armed with a cause,
an idea and their fashion statement of “rawsome”,
the class of 2005 got to work and the result was an excellent showcase
of hard work and knowledge of the industry. It was the type of
show
where the presence of the models served the creative ideas of the
designers and organizers well. The way all these elements came together
created quite the spectacle. The main objective for the organizers was
“to show the evolution in fashion, starting with the raw and unpolished
looks that graced the runway in the early years when fashion was not
yet what it would eventually become, to the polished looks that are
presented on the catwalk now, where every detail has been checked and
checked again; because this is a business where perfection has become
the ideal”.
The VIPs could be spotted everywhere because this annual show has
produced some of Toronto’s fashion elite, from designers to make-up
artists. Some of Canada’s top designers were proud to lend their
talents
to make sure that the event went of without a hitch. The evening
started with an introduction from the
Mistress of Ceremonies Jennifer Johnson, Fashion Editor of the Globe
and Mail, followed by welcomes from both the Associate Dean of
Humber’s Business School, Alvina Cassiani and the
Fashion Co-ordinator, Susan Robertson. Then, set to the modern fashion
anthem “fashion
is for fashion people”, the designer’s creations told the story of
fashion, how it started out as showcase and grew into a business.
