I’ve been chasing my dreams my entire life, and being accepted into the Fashion Arts Toronto program is an incredible achievement for my brand.
I’m thrilled to announce that I’ll be showcasing a solo show at the historical Toronto Distillery District May 26, 8pm.
The collection, titled Nocturnal Rose, comprises 20 peices that embrace ethereal beauty with a subtle touch of romantic goth while paying homage to the traditional beadwork of the anishinaabe people.
The rose symbolizes resilience, carrying renown beauty while also possessing thorns that represent strength.
Additionally, it has medical properties that allow it to be reborn repeatedly, embodying the essence of a powerful force of nature.
We cordially invite you to join us in celebrating this remarkable milestone of amplifying Indigenous voices on platforms that were once unimaginable. Let’s unite as a community and honor not only the brand but also every individual who has collaborated with us on this incredible journey.
Love & Gratitude
