Ensemble !

Due to the global Coronavirus pandemic and the strong possibly of a second surge, it is with mixed emotions that we announce the postponement of our Fall 2020 event until Spring 2021.

It is with excitement, however, that we announce a new digital initiative that will aim to keep the spotlight on our region’s designers during these uncertain times.

In an effort to continue supporting and celebrating our region’s incredible talent, we will launch a digital interview series, “Meet Our Makers”, which will showcase some of the incredible individuals who make up the fabric of the Atlantic Canadian fashion industry.

While our designers, models, hair stylists and make-up artists have long captured the world’s attention by showcasing their talents on our Atlantic Fashion Week runways, we hope this series will be a unique spin on allowing those from around the globe to see just how special our small but mighty industry is, and get to know the amazing stories behind some of the names they’ve come to know through our events over the past 14 years.

We will announce further details about the Meet Our Makers series later this summer, and will share our launch date with you early this Fall.

We thank your continued enthusiastic support. We look forward to continuing to connect with you digitally and seeing you at our Spring 2021 event.
