The forthcoming edition of Canadian fashion fest Vancouver Fashion Week, a culturally-diverse event that celebrates multiculturalism through catwalk showcases staged by labels from around the world, is set to take place from September 15 to 21, 2014.

More than 60 designers belonging to countries like Colombia, Mexico, India, Norway and Australia will feature their latest Spring/Summer 2015 designs at the semi-annual soiree, which is running into its 25th season.

Expected to be attended by over 25,000 industry insiders, socialites, celebrities, fashion media and buyers, the event will feature creations by Renata Buzzo, the Brazilian designer known for her signature moulage draped custom-made garments, and the Young Parisian Designers Award recipient, French-born talent Laura Laval.

The designers’ line up also includes the Italy’s Istituto Marangoni alumnus Andrea Lazzar as well as French fashion house Givenchy’s design team member Joffrey Mongin.

Also labels like Jaesun Chung (South Korea), Också (by designers Deisi Witz and Igor Bastos), Dawson and Deveraux (led by designer Sophie Karen) and Japanese menswear creator Shinya Yamaguchi will showcase their exquisite creations at the event.
