Toronto Fashion Week, March 12-16
Just as the weather has turned very spring-like, the Fashion Design Council of Canada (FDCC) begins its newly renamed World MasterCard Fashion Week at David Pecaut Square.
It kicks off tonight with a private reception before launching into shows starting with KORHANI—Home Fashion Rug Runway. In addition to the many runway shows, they will be having other events including an open house exhibit at the Textile Museum of Canada and a Fashion Film Festival.
Designers showing this season include Chloe comme Parris, Soia & Kyo, Lundström, Lucian Matis, Bustle, Melissa Nepton, Joe Fresh, Rudsak, OPPIO, Pink Tartan, 2011 Mercedes-Benz Start Up Recipient MARTIN LIM, David Dixon, KORHANI Home Rug Runway Show, Dare to Wear Love, Caitlin Powers, Cara Cheung, Ashtiani, Sanya Khan, and Travis Taddeo. In addition, Holt Renfrew will showcase Jeremy Laing, Lida Baday, Dennis Merrotto, Mackage, Line, Smythe, Twenty Cluny, and Judith & Charles.
World MasterCard Fashion Week takes place at David Pecaut Square, at King Street West at John Street, between Metro Hall and Roy Thomson Hall.

It’s that time of year again! Calendars are being circled, outfits are being selected, and pens are poised. World MasterCard Fashion Week is around the corner and fashion takes centre stage in Toronto!
This season we are pleased to move forward with World MasterCard as our new title sponsor, allowing us to further develop fashion week in Toronto as an event on the global fashion agenda.
This season, David Pecaut Square will once again be our home! With glittering skyskrapers in the background and the cultural hub of Roy Thompson Hall next door, we can’t think of a more fitting location to construct our fashion environment. This season we are creating over 30 000 square feet of tent space with a 100 ft catwalk in the main room and seating for 900! We’re bringing back the intimate Studio Space with an entire wall of glass windows allowing passers by the chance to peek at all the excitement!
Last season we had so much fun giving our top fashion fans tickets that we’re doing it again! Look for details on Facebook and Twitter on our streetstyle competition.
The calendar is now live and all passes are available for purchase. Be sure to follow us on twitter for up to the second details and we’ll see you on the catwalk!
