“Inspiring a More Inclusive & Dynamic Fashion Landscape”

In this fireside chat you will learn how the collaboration between Indigenous Fashion Week Toronto and Quebec based retailer La Maison Simons was formed. Sage and Oceane will discuss their perspectives and experience working with indigenous designers from across Canada, and how the collection was designed to provide a wider audience with access to the unique and rich creativity of the 8 indigenous artists. The two will also address how cultural appropriation (vs appreciation) was managed, and what the future has in store.
