The inaugural show highlighted a cast of local Canadian based talent, including the launch of new Canadian brands, which included the much anticipated Mayana Genevière collection.
Mayana Genevière's high luxury intimate apparel brand closes the gap between high fashion lingerie and maternity undergarments. The show also highlight some new designs by TetianaK clothing with accessory sponsors being RisKandy and Boa Accessories.
The event area was breathtakingly staged by White Lace Events with art work provided by Norman Felix Art Gallery.
The afterparty kicked into gear with the Toronto Argonauts Cheerleaders joining the event and taking pictures with guests. The sounds of DJ Ikhan rang through the venue as everyone took a moment to celebrate the gathering of Canadian designers and brands. The night was a huge success as the mission statement of bringing light and spurring economic growth in the Canadian fashion industry was met.
Paul Sidhu, CFO of hangrz, commented, "The support was phenomenal. We worked right up to the 12th hour finalizing the little details and it all came together. This was definitely a collaborative effort, not only from the brands, but from all the outside parties that helped push the show and bring the right people into our seats. We have already begun working on our Spring 2014 Toronto Fashion Week show and have numerous brands and sponsors lining up to be a part of it. We couldn't be happier with the results."
