Now represented by Richard Models’ Artists division @rmartists, she’s worked alongside brands including NARS, Makeup by Mario, and Drunk Elephant.

Some teachers change the way you see the world. Lisa Gellert is one of them.
For decades, Lisa has guided emerging designers through the foundations of fashion in our Design Collections program, from colour and fabric selection to trend forecasting, technical flats, and finding their own design voice. It's where students learn not just how to design, but how to think like a designer.
Lisa has been honoured with Vancouver Fashion Week's 2026 Lifetime Achievement Award, recognizing her lasting contribution and influence within the industry.
"It's fun. I'm not in this space just because I'm a teacher but because I love fashion. I love the movement of fashion."
"Keep practising, keep sewing, be persistent and you may discover yourself."
Congratulations, Lisa. We are so proud to have you at the heart of our Fashion Design program 🧡
From a Managerial role in the hospitality industry, to stepping into the profession he always felt pulled toward, Pro Hair student Jack Meighan made a career shift at 28.
Just four months into the program, he’s already working on fashion shoots and connecting with the Vancouver Fashion Week hair team.
“I moved to Canada from London, England when I was 20 years old with no clear pathway. I worked my way up to being a General Manager, but I’ve always had a hidden passion for hair and one day I chose to dive head first into it. When I first started at Blanche Macdonald I felt seen and felt comfortable for the first time in years. Like I could finally express a side of myself I didn’t even fully know was there. Blanche Macdonald provides so many opportunities that help you grow, one of the best decisions I have made.
Learning something new and challenging yourself has never felt so good. There’s never a bad time to try something you’ve always wanted to.”

Calla Syna Dreyer, Blanche Macdonald Global Makeup graduate and industry veteran, was credited as Makeup Department Head on We Were Liars, the Prime Video adaptation of E. Lockhart’s bestselling psychological thriller We Were Liars.
Her career spans major film and television productions, including The Flash, Peacemaker, Wilderness, Supernatural, and Fringe, reflecting her versatility and long-standing impact in the industry.

New tech, homage, and adaptation are all hallmarks of a killer creative project. Adriana Ariza @horrorglamfx, a current student in our Global Makeup Program, took her airbrush final to the next level by conceptualizing and 3D printing her own custom mask and weaponry to create this exceptional Female Predator Warrior.
Under the mentorship of her instructors, industry superstars Daemon Cadman @daecadman and Jennifer Little @artistjenniferlittle, Adriana developed the professional airbrushing and conceptual techniques required to bring a character of this scale to life. Mastering this level of artistry is a vital step toward building the high-calibre portfolio needed to secure union permittee status and launch a career in Vancouver's thriving Film & TV industry.
Swipe to see how Adriana guided her concept to reality.

Congratulations on your Nomination for Womenswear of the Year for the Canadian Arts and Fashion Award.

Character creation in progress inside our Prosthetics module, taught by Emmy Award–winning instructor and grad Holland Miller. Where beauty can get a little strange 👽️
From lifecast to sculpt to final application, students build fully realized characters from scratch using the same techniques seen on set, including 3D bondo transfers.
Vancouver is one of the busiest production hubs in North America, and with so much filming happening here, it’s an exciting time to be a prosthetics artist. This is the level of work it takes to launch a career in TV & Film.
Final prosthetic exam!

Chloe Duncan’s debut collection for CLDCMNTY didn’t exactly whisper down the Vancouver Fashion Week runway. It came out roaring - loud, anarchic and deliberate, fully its own thing.
This is what happens when a designer has actual conviction. CLDCMNTY is already a name worth knowing.
Chloe is one of six Blanche Macdonald Fashion Design graduates showing solo collections at Vancouver Fashion Week this season, a rare level of runway space for emerging designers in Canada, and a clear commitment to giving them room to fully develop their vision.
The 2026 Emerging Designer Award winners, Blanche Macdonald partnering with VFW are Chloe Duncan, Ben Reitmeier and Nathalie Ravaoary.
Senior designers and Blanche Macdonald graduates showing again at VFW include Alex S. Yu, Bahar Kianpour and Ainsley Macpherson. Congratulations to all!

Blanche Macdonald Fashion Design grad and instructor, Bahar Kianpour came from Iran with a vision of the world that doesn't look like anyone else's.
Architecture school couldn't hold her. The precision stayed. You see it in every seam, every piece of beadwork but the feeling she was chasing lived somewhere else entirely.
LAMENTA her PARIS F/W 2026 collection, showed at Paris Fashion Week to the kind of reception that makes it clear: this is not someone finding her footing. This is someone who already knows exactly where she's going.
The studio at 3am. Months of it. An ocean crossed with something fragile and fully realized packed inside it. Grief made wearable. Memory you can put on your body.
She shows at Vancouver Fashion Week on April 12. Come see what Paris already knows. 🖤

Behind the scenes at The Makeup Show NYC ✨️ Makeup grad and instructor Timothy Hung creating on the Danessa Myricks Beauty stage, bringing his signature bold artistry to life in real time on @iamgerrii.
“Behind the scenes with my model @iamgerrii, captured just after stepping off the @danessamyricksbeauty stage at @themakeupshow NYC. Peeling away the final layers of the look we created, it’s a beautiful reminder that the artistry lives not just in the application—but in the transformation and release.”
